Charter yanking KCRA after election

Charter-Spectrum has agreed to keep KCRA-TV as an option for South Shore subscribers through June 8.

The four-day extension is so viewers will be able to get coverage of the California primary.

Local politicians have been trying to get the cable company to rethink their policy. The company so far is sticking to its business plan.

It all comes down to money. South Shore residents shops more in the Carson City-Reno area than in Sacramento. That’s why the news in a week will all come from Nevada and not California even though some of those viewers live in California.
