Comcast Wins!!

Comcast 'wins' Consumerist worst-company tournament
The votes are in, and Comcast has won Consumerist's uncoveted "Worst Company in America" award.

The Philadelphia telecom firm beat runner-up Ticketmaster in the last round of voting by a margin of 59 to 41 percent -- ending a two-year losing streak that saw it crushed by AIG in 2009 and run over by Countrywide Home Loans in 2008.

This year, Comcast faced a smoother road to victory in the NCAA-tournament-style competition of Consumerist, a snarky blog acquired by Consumer Reports at the end of 2008. Not even the personal lobbying of Comcast customer service director Frank Eliason in comments slowed its campaign. (You may know Eliason on Twitter as "comcastcares"; between that and his showing on Consumerist's message boards, I think he's more than earned a raise.)

Comcast's less-"successful" rivals included fellow final four contenders Bank of America, Cash4Gold and Ticketmaster, plus 28 other companies
I firmly concur, they deserve to be #1.
