PITTSBURGH, May 19, 2008 -Citing the story of an independent cable provider in New York State as further evidence of egregious market abuse by certain programmers, the American Cable Association (ACA) today urged the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to address the broken wholesale marketplace.

PITTSBURGH, January 16, 2008 —During its first quarter meeting, the American Cable Association’s (ACA) board of directors appointed Steve Friedman, COO of Wave Broadband of Kirkland, Wash., as vice chair. Friedman is one of ACA’s most veteran board members, serving on ACA’s board several times since the organization’s founding in 1993. Friedman currently serves as ACA’s treasurer and as a member of ACA’s executive committee.

PITTSBURGH, February 8, 2008 – The American Cable Association (ACA) this year will proudly celebrate 15 years of representing independent cable operators throughout America. Since 1993, the ACA has represented small- and medium-sized cable operators before the U.S.Congress, Federal Communications Commission and other federal agencies. In the years before ACA was formed, small and often rural community cable providers had little support and stood alone without a unified voice in their legislative, regulatory and business battles.
