Diverse Group Supports Adelphia Acquisition
- Share via
“Cable Merger Dissent Grows” (July 28) missed the central development in the pending acquisition of Adelphia Communications Corp.’s cable systems by Time Warner Inc. and Comcast Corp.: The deal enjoys the support of a bipartisan and diverse number of organizations, a rarity in an ever-increasing polarized and partisan world.
The National Black Chamber of Commerce, which serves 100,000 black-owned businesses, joined this coalition recognizing that the Adelphia acquisition will save jobs, offer small and minority-owned businesses new opportunities and provide consumers with an $800-million investment in upgraded, advanced digital networks.
