Time Warner Cable Plans Spectrum Bidding

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Time Warner Cable has submitted a "short form" with the FCC that allows it and its partners in a wireless joint venture to bid on wireless spectrum in a government auction scheduled for next month, CEO Glenn Britt said.

The news came as part of a half-day investor event held by TWC top brass ahead of its planned completion of the takeover with Comcast Corp. of Adelphia Communications and TWC's spinoff from Time Warner, which are expected in the summer.
