A local Comcast Corp. cable system temporarily cut funding to a small Washington state nonprofit that tweeted its surprise that the cable giant
hired a Federal Communications Commission member as a lobbyist just four months after she voted to approve the company's deal to acquire NBCUniversal.
Reel Grrls, a Seattle-based nonprofit that offers programs for young women including a summer camp for those interested in film-making and video production, said on Thursday morning that
Comcast had pulled its funding because of the tweet.
