In the United States alone, there are millions of people who rely on television for both information from news and entertainment from daily scheduled programming. Today, a popular method of television broadcasting is done via cable television.

Next is the Cox cable company which is owned by Cox enterprises. They have almost 6 million subscribers to their cable service, internet and phone service.
