Fail

Wouldn't the best sort of marketing be, um... actually spending the money they have to um, make things work right?

Its funny, Fairpoint has all this cash to waste on marketing and none to spend on actually running their business and they wonder why they are failing?

Maybe bankruptcy filings should be for Chapter 7, not 11.

They are just doing what they have learned from the free markets. You know, the bankers that stole TRILLIONS of dollars, yet get a bailout. Why, because the banking industry has very good lobbyist. The key to success in the US is not a good product, but good lobbying.

Which is most likely resulting in numerous people canceling Fairpoint service because they can find alternate service from someone else.

Which of course is the complete polar opposite of the free market.

The article summary explains that Fairpoint is great at lobbying, but clearly these activities are not translating into success.

Only if you forgot to also lobby for it to be normal free market practice

Better idea, Fairpoint needs to learn how to resell Wildblue. They should get a custom Fairpoint branded puke colored modem from Via Sat.
