“Let LUS join cable cooperative”

The Advertiser opines that the National Cable Television Cooperative (and by implication Cox cable) should let LUS join the coop. They’re right. Some of the highlights from the editorial:

LUS is seeking membership in the cooperative, a body created by the federal government to leverage the purchasing power of small cable TV companies.

…the lawsuit was just another punch thrown in the fight between LUS and its private competitors. The court was right to reject the lawsuit and to allow LUS’ attempt to join the cooperative to proceed.

…Denying LUS membership in the cooperative is fundamentally unfair.

…Originally, the membership applications of LUS and city utilities in Wilson, N.C., and Chattanooga, Tenn., were ignored. Wilson and Chattanooga eventually were granted membership, but not LUS.The private competitors of the other two systems are not members of the cooperative. Cox is. There’s nothing subtle about that.

Indeed, there is nothing subtle about what is going on here. Cox is playing bully-boy with its more than 6 million subscribers (vs. Lafayette’s 52,000 Total households) to keep Lafayette out of a buying coop that is chartered precisely to allow small guys like LUS to compete with the likes of Cox. —Leading to the conclusion that is also the title of the editorial:

Let LUS join cable cooperative.
