It's ironic that up until now, the only thing
Adelphia was famous for was being a small-town
Pennsylvania operation in the middle of
nowhere, run by this family who was so "moral"
that they refused to put X-rated adult video
channels on any of their systems, which really
ticked off some of their subscribers in big cities
like L.A.
Now their founder and a couple of his sons have
been arrested...not just charged, but actually
arrested for defrauding their investors and using
their money for corporate jets, private golf
courses, etc.

AT&T, Comcast, and Charter come to mind as bigger
cable companies. Is AT&T the biggest right now? I
wouldn't be surprised.
