Not sure how much the culture has changed since I worked for them in the 
late 80's, but Cox is a family company. While the daughters of the 
founder are worth a combined $>10B and are in their later years having 
run the company now for 25+ years, it's still a family all media company 
owning Newsprint, TV, Radio and cable among other things. When I worked 
for them, it felt like a family operation despite the Cox sisters being 
so far removed from the trenches.
