A Nashville judge has declined to dismiss a lawsuit brought by the Tennessee Cable Telecommunications Association seeking to block the EPB from getting into the cable TV business. Chancellor Ellen Lyle also said in a memorandum opinion that the case will remain in Nashville. Attorneys for EPB had sought to have the lawsuit dismissed. They also asked that it be heard in Chattanooga since EPB is located here. www.chattanoogan.com/articles/article_119825.asp |

Seems that the Dark Side is more powerful then previously thought. Of course, if the EPB actually finishes laying fiber optic cable and runs TV and 'net services through it as previously stated and charges what Comcast currently charges for those same services, I'd say the move to EPB would be more of a mass migration. Lot of "ifs", though.

The biggest problem I have is that EPB is a city-owned company. Spin it off as a private company with no reliance on the taxpayers to bail it out if it fails, and I'm okay with it.

Isn't the EPB Cable Division located in the Chattanoogan?
