The 270 or so Brooklyn-based Cablevision employees, who voted to join the Communications Workers of America in January, remain the only unionized Cablevision workers.

A Cablevision spokesperson said the allegations are false and employees were “in no way coerced,” and this is “just sour grapes” over the loss.
