AT&T bought time warner a few years ago.
That was Charter/ Spectrum. Verizon TRIED to buy them (Charter), but they turned them down. I'll edit and link in a second:
"On May 18, 2016, Charter finalized acquisition of Time Warner Cable and its sister company Bright House Networks, making it the third-largest pay television service in the United States."
I worked there, and we had people from Time Warner. It's on Wikipedia, too.

AT&T is the king of LA, they're actually kind of dying. Cox has a strangle hold on San Diego. Spectrum/ Charter is everything in-between. They've PAIRED with Verizon to use their towers to extend their internet networks to rural areas. They also paired with Comcast to fight Roku, with a device called "Zumo". It's all moving towards wireless internet for everything, except if you're a gamer or work from home.
