The dynasty ends: Electronic Arts will not three-peat as the ‘Worst Company in America’

The executives at publisher Electronic Arts are probably ecstatic that they are losers today.

EA will not win the title of “Worst Company in America” for a third consecutive year. The gamemaker, which is responsible for titles like sci-fi shooter Titanfall and military shooter Battlefield 4, lost to telecommunications conglomerate Time Warner Cable in the first round of The Consumerist blog’s tournament of despised corporations. For the last several years, The Consumerist has held this competition to let people highlight particularly awful companies. Readers voted and decided that Time Warner was more deserving for its potential merger with Comcast as well as its poor customer service and prices.
