PHILADELPHIA - Comcast Corp. on Thursday named Steven A. White as its West division president.
He will be responsible for the cable TV company's operations in Arizona, California, Colorado, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, New Mexico, Oregon, Washington, Utah and Wisconsin.
He will oversee 20,000 employees and serve more than 6 million subscribers.
White replaces Brad Dusto, who had been with Comcast for 17 years.
Most recently, White was the regional senior vice president for Comcast's California region. He also held other management positions, including at AT&T Inc., Tele-Communications Inc. and Colgate-Palmolive Co.
Comcast, based in Philadelphia, is the nation's largest cable TV operator.
Just as Lawrence Kazmerski, a top official at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory, was about to give the keynote address at the University of Minnesota's annual E3 conference at the RiverCentre in St. Paul, the lights went out, bathing the audience in darkness and a deep sense of irony.
