Track record on Adelphia purchase may haunt TWC.

I'm not so sure that regulators would approve TWC buying Charter assets, given how they handled Adelphia. TWC quickly dumped the smaller Adelphia markets it acquired into the hands of a company invented from whole cloth that is mainly controlled by a private equity group and that has contracted everything out to less than stellar contractors. So far, consumer complaints about this new company are skyrocketing, not surprising given the company never existed before the purchase and has no real experience handling a medium-sized, multi-state cable operation (yes, one of the minor investors is a very small cable company in Jupiter, FL, but they had no experience with anything other than a small operation). Comcast is looking for a buyer for the smaller Adelphia assets it doesn't want; however, if it's smart it will not dump those markets into the hands of anyone with money but no track record of running a cable operation.

·WOW Internet and..

And what areas where sold off of Adelphia that TWC didn't want?

The markets they did not want went to Comcast when it made sense. Those both swapped markets and such and split the Adelphia markets.

Also if it makes business sense to sell off markets that a company doesn't want they will sell them. You nor the gov't has control of that.

get over it.

And again where are you getting your information about Comcast has Adelphia markets for sale?

And again; stop telling businesses how to conduct their business.
