Probably ATT. Many areas of NJ had zero service from them for days.

 A quick skim of the article (again,
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/11/01/storm-sandy-telecoms-idUSL1E8M1L9Z20121101
) makes me suspect AT&T.  They're mentioned twice in other context, but
there's not a sites-online statistic for them.

 I suppose it's worth noting that this wouldn't be the first time they've
caught flak for their (in)ability to cover NYC sufficiently.
