IF YOU're a cable customer with a growing bill and no one to complain
to --
you've been comcasted!

IF YOU want to watch the Flyers and 76ers on satellite TV, forget about it
-- you've been comcasted!

IF YOU live in Comcast Country and you want video on demand or high
speed internet -- you'll probably get comcasted!

Award-winning Philadelphia Inquirer business news reporter Joe
DiStefano takes a piercing look into the nation's largest cable and
internet company and its ruling family - the Robertses.  Based on over
two years of meticulous research, DiStefano has written a must-read
history of the cable industry and its dominant player.

Learn about the alliances, rivalries, fast moves and takeovers that
took this once small enterprise in Tupelo, Mississippi to the top of
the cable heap.  Now as Comcast stands to get even bigger with its
pending purchase of Adelphia, you owe it to yourself to hear more
about Philadelphia's hometown cable giant before you pay your next
cable bill!
