Why Him? As an industrial engineer, Might sees things from a different perspective, always willing to go against the “consensus view.” His contrarian bets against industry consensus have included no VOD, 550 Mhz plant and 50 Mbs standard HSD speeds. Might, who was offered the job of Publisher of the Baltimore Sun but instead chose to move to Phoenix to run Cable One, is passionate about the company, its customers and its associates.
The biggest innovation in cable over the last year: DOCSIS 3.1
