wake up and smell the coffee

these fossilized cabletv executives over at twc are as clueless as
they were about coming trends as they were when they bought AOL.

the longer TWC holds out for better offers, the more subs it
will shed to cord cutting and the more worthless it will become.

soon all you'll have left are a tech ignorant subs
paying twc's debt service, with no profits at all.

the charter offer is smart because it's fcc-proof since charter
and twc do not compete in too many of the same markets.

twc should be glad it's getting any realistic offers at all.
if i were a cabletv competitor, i'd just wait till twc dies
then pick at it's bones for pennies on the dollar.

Excuse me but you have it backwards. AOL, Steve Case, bought TWC.

TWC was part of Time Warner when AOL and Time Warner merged.

The cable guys weren't involved in the AOL/TW merger.

And AOL's board and Steve were head of TW for what? Half hour? Before the TW board got put back together again.
