Horrendously incomprehensible lead

I came to the article to read about the Worldcom scandal. I had no idea that Worldcom had morphed into another company and bla bla.

But that's just it...bla bla bla. I'm sorry, but although I do have a good deal of professional experience with companies, on reading the lead I have less than no idea about which company is and was what and when etc etc. It really is a spectacular mess. Good luck! The change in companies does look complex! Boscaswell talk 15:06, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

Rhythms NetConnections asset acquisition Comment Spelling/grammar correction

In 2000, Rhythms NetConnections was the second-largest privately owned DSL company (second only to Covad), I believe. Then the dot com crisis hit and investors fled. Within a year, it was in bankruptcy and had bled 2000 employees during a series of lay-offs that spanned that time. I was one of the remaining employees before moving overseas. The last I had heard was that MCI-Worldcom was going to buy all of their assets, and the remaining employees would be moved to MCI-Worldcom's team. Yet, I see no mention of this in the article. Did this not happen or is this a large oversight? ReveurGAM (talk) 03:43, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
