  1. Fortunately, most of the 7 Cities also have a modicum of FiOS, plus a decent penetration of satellite TV as well. But, the reason you aren't seeing a BIG kerfuffle is because for the four markets affected, there is a (somewhat) reasonable alternative (other than satellite TV and OTA) because of Cox's low footprint nationwide.

     

    NOLA would be the biggest loss by market and MVPD coverage -- Cox is the only provider (sans satellite) in New Orleans proper and most other areas south and east of Lake Ponchartrain.

     

    Most of immediate Phoenix and the northern parts of the market have Centurylink as a competitor, as well as Mediacom w/ a small sliver too in eastern parts. Western parts (towards Vegas) have Frontier.

     

    Macon is really the only one with no other MVPD in immediate area (Frontier and Mediacom are on the northern fringes). But even then -- Mediacom actually has a small sliver in some spots of Macon proper.

    But the New Orleans area has AT&T as a competitor to Cox, along with maybe Charter/Spectrum. Macon also has AT&T as a competitor to Cox, and CenturyLink actually serves the entire Phoenix area. Which specific parts of the Phoenix area have Mediacom and Frontier? I live there without realizing they have operations in parts of the area. In the Hampton Roads area, I think Hampton Roads also has Mediacom, and there might be more of that area with Charter.

    UPDATE: The Phoenix area is primarily Cox and CenturyLink, with Mediacom serving only some eastern suburbs. None of it is served by Frontier.
