(A) A cable operator shall not deny cable service, deny access, or otherwise discriminate, nor subject any person to prejudice or disadvantage on the basis of age, race, creed, color, sex, national origin, handicap, or religious affiliation. Cable operators shall not deny cable service, or the extension of cable service, to any group of potential residential cable subscribers because of the income of the residents of the local area in which such group resides.
(B) The provisions of this section shall not, however, prohibit a cable operator from:
(1) Offering bulk rate discounts or promotions; or
(2) Denying service based on location of residence, if that residence is outside the parameters for line extension, or standard installations, as provided for in this article or the cable operator’s franchise.
