Time Warner Cable
Time Warner Cable Inc. (TWC) (formerly Warner Cable Communications and sometimes colloquially referred to as simply Time Warner) is an American cable telecommunications company that operates in 28 states and has 31 operating divisions. Its corporate headquarters are located in the Time Warner Center in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, with other corporate offices in Stamford, Connecticut; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Herndon, Virginia.
Originally controlled by Time Warner (the film and television production company and cable channel operator), that company spun out the cable operations in March 2009 as part of a larger restructuring. Since then, Time Warner Cable has been an entirely independent company, merely continuing to use the Time Warner and Road Runner High Speed Online brands under license from its former parent. Time Warner Cable does own several local news and sports channels, but it no longer has any corporate affiliation with national cable channels such as CNN or HBO, which remain the property of the original Time Warner.

Famous quotes containing the words time, warner and/or cable:
“We have not the motive to prepare ourselves for a “life-work” of teaching, of social work—we know that we would lay it down with hallelujah in the height of our success, to make a home for the right man. And all the time in the background of our consciousness rings the warning that perhaps the right man will never come. A great love is given to very few. Perhaps this make-shift time filler of a job is our life work after all.”
—Ruth Benedict (1887–1948)
“Mud-pies gratify one of our first and best instincts. So long as we are dirty, we are pure.”
—Charles Dudley Warner (1829–1900)
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
