   U.S. Telecom providers, as companies that have spent the better part   
   of the last century as government-pampered monopolies, are adorable   
   when they try to innovate or seriously compete in more normal,   
   competitive markets. Verizon's attempt to pivot from curmudgeonly old   
   phone company to sexy new ad media darling, for example, has been a   
   cavalcade of clumsy errors, missteps, and wasted money.
