NY1 to Be Called ‘Time Warner Cable News NY1’ Now, Because Time Warner

It beats the original plan to rename the much-loved local network after its much-loathed corporate overlord entirely, as TWC News. “The company really took notice after New Yorkers questioned the wisdom of a rebrand,” said Canadian angel and/or anchor Pat Kiernan. Since Time Warner Cable News NY1 is a mouthful — and again, everyone hates TWC — the network “will continue to be referred to audibly as NY1,” Time Warner said in a statement. No one was going to call it that abomination anyway.
