| Re: Adelphia = Worst Even with all the proposed changes taking place at Adelphia to "improve" it, you can be sure that:
1. Lots of people at Adelphia will lose their jobs. 2. Everybody in the Rigas family will remain rich. 3. Top management will walk away okay. 4. Most subscribers will eventually get better service from whoever eventually takes over from Adelphia. 5. Some, perhaps a lot of subscribers, (those who currently only have Adelphia as a broadband choice), will get screwed because of either the delay in new service or poor transition from the new provider. -- Just because its accurate doesn't mean its true.

 |  gAmEoVr join:2002-02-10 Morgantown, WV | Adelphia IS the worst cable company Ive seen if not one of the worst companies in general. Just take a look at their stock and how it was so high now under 10 bucks its worthless cause its going to go lower and lower until the whole damn company is bankrupt. I will have a party when they do go bankrupt your all invited. | |

 |  | | Adelphia definitely is at the low end of the spectrum..okay..the bottom. I spoke to a GM for our area in NC a couple of months ago and she told me that cable Internet access was at least 2 years away. I was so shocked I didn't know how to respond. This company is mismanaged from the top all the way down. The local one doesn't even carry all national networks on cable. I'm hoping with what has happened recently with them that Time Warner will just buy this one out or something. They know how to do upgrades a bit quicker than 2 years. Adelphia has really done a disservice to the city I'm in!

While the statement is true, getting real independence from the long-time family friend and board member currently heading the audit committee is not all that likely.
Nasdaq sez: "Trading will remain halted until Adelphia Communications Inc. has fully satisfied Nasdaq's request for additional information." »www.nasdaq.com/asp/quotes_news.a···ADLAE%60
I'd guess the normally quite tolerant Naz is starting to feel a bit used here.
1- ADLAC C- Issuer qualifications exceptions 2- ADLAE E- Delinquent in required filing with the SEC 3- ADLA* Halted 4- ADLA* ?
Where do we go from here? Delist? End the halt? | |

 |  cpr2kThis Won'T Hurt..Premium join:2002-02-02 San Marcos, CA | Audit suspended.. "Adelphia also said the audit of the company by Deloitte & Touche will be suspended pending completion of an internal investigation into issues related to the filing of its annual report, which has been delayed."
Looks like D&T has dug their heels in regarding their findings. With Rigas Sr. stepping down, the son's possible responsibility in "accounting irregularities" may very well come to light.
While many of us are unhappy with our Adelphia service, the company has done much for it's community. I am sad and sorry to see the way this is unfolding. The impact on the employees and the communities that rely on the company could be enormous. If that is not enough hard news, this is also beginning to look like a family tragedy. -- No good deed goes unpunished.. | |
