History<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In 1973, American Television and Communications was purchased by Time Inc. during the building stages of Warner Communication’s\u00a0Warner Cable. After the two companies joined forces with a landmark merger in 1989, it only took 3 years for the new company, Time Warner Inc.<\/a>, to conjoin its two television subsidiaries and form Time Warner Cable. In 1996, TWC took its first steps into the world of internet with the first cable-delivered high speed internet service, Roadrunner. Soon after, TWC introduced digital cable, VOD, and a digital phone service that\u00a0formed one\u00a0of the first “triple play” services. In 2007, TWC became a publicly traded company, and broke off from Time Warner Inc. in 2009 to become an independent company. While serving as one of the top providers in the industry, TWC continued to grow in size with acquisitions of Adelphia, NewWave Communications\/Navi Site, Insight Communications, and DukeNet Communications. \u00a0After industry legend Glenn Britt stepped down in 2013, Robert D. Marcus was elected the new chairman and CEO of TWC. (3<\/a>)<\/p>\n
