This year Cablevision's stock has declined, while the stock of its two competitors -- Comcast and Time Warner -- has risen.

Some think he is punishing the company for rejecting the offer; according to Dolan, the shareholders gave him a mandate to grow the company. WSJ, 'Dolan Discount' Affliction.
