David L. Cohen, Executive Vice President of Comcast Corporation, recently sat down with News4 anchor Jim Handly on The Viewpoint to talk about Comcastโs Internet Essentials program and the significant progress it has made in the two years since it began.
As a result of Internet Essentials, over 600,000 low-income families have been able to access the internet. In a recent Comcast press release, Mr. Cohen stated โInternet Essentials is not just about broadband adoption, it is also about what the Internet can do for families, from finding a job to completing homework to accessing vital healthcare resources.โ He also said, โWhile weโre pleased with our progress to date, we have more work to do to bring more families into the digital age.โ
