Re: [IA] Increased Rates
said by wth  :WOW....like one million is a big expense in their size of operation. For a company that lost $126M in 2006, $95M last year, and is on track to lose money in 2008, I'd suggest that $1M is a relatively big expense. |

| I didn't see this posted, but in the recent Mediacom bill I received, it stated there would be a $3.00 increase on "Broadcast" cable and $1.00 increase on family cable.
I may not be recalling correctly, but usually when they state the increases in the bill, it's usually several months away. Correct? I noticed this bill stated that the changes will take place within 30 days. |
