THE OBAMA-TRONS JAMMED COMCAST and now Comcast is going to jam you and me

As part of its merger with NBC Universal earlier this year, Comcast is required to provide 2.5 million low-income households with high-speed Internet for less than $10 a month; computers for less than $150 a month; and digital literacy training, according to the Federal Communications Commission.
A program launching this week in partnership with the Comcast cable provider seeks to change that. Families with children who qualify for free school lunches can sign up for low-cost, high-speed Internet, buy a computer at a discount and take free Internet training.
Access to the Internet is akin to a civil rights issue for the 21st Century, said David Cohen, Comcast executive vice president. Its that access that enables people in poorer areas to equalize access to a quality education, quality healthcare and vocational opportunities.
