Our Heritage
Cox Enterprises, Inc., the majority shareholder
of Cox Communications, began with the 1898 purchase of the
Dayton (Ohio) Evening News by James M. Cox,
who would later serve three terms as Governor of Ohio and
was the Democratic candidate for U.S. President in 1920. The
company Governor Cox founded eventually purchased additional
newspapers, radio and television stations, cable TV systems
and automobile auctions. Today, privately held Cox Enterprises
maintains significant holdings in each of those businesses,
as well as numerous related ventures, and had consolidated
revenues of more than $10 billion in 2003. |
