I don't have cable. I just never watched a lot of TV.

You know, people aren't watching a network: they're watching cable channels.

In 1984 nobody knew what cable was going to be. It was there, but you didn't know where it was going.

I didn't even have cable back in my college house.

I think cable has been under-appreciated for its contribution to society.

Cable is a dynamic and highly innovative industry, providing cutting edge services and content that Americans love. The broadband platform the industry has deployed is a critical part of the infrastructure needed to realize our national ambition to be a great nation in the Information Age.

Cable penetrates 70 percent of American audiences now.

Cable has come along; many all-news 24 hour cable outlets in the United States. They have cut deeply into the traditional networks' viewing audience.

We're closer to HBO than we are to the entire grid of cable on demand.
