It looks like it is true. Slate has an article on it:
https://amp.slate.com/technology/2018/07/spectrum-forced-to-leave-new-york-after-failing-to-meet-the-terms-of-its-2016-merger-with-time-warner.html

The part that caught my eye was:
The company provides internet, cable, and phone services to more than *2* *million* customers in New York.
Apart from banning Spectrum from New York, the commission is also fining the company $3 million.

There are other news sources that corroborate this.
