Consumer preception of a product plays an important part in classification.
In a 2005 supreme Court case Justice Scalia made a dissent said that the people obviously view cable broadband as a telecommunication service and the FCC can't blatantly misclassify the service.
The same precedent was used to pass the 2015 open internet order.
When this goes to court, the FCC will have to explain why it ignored millions of consumers and refuses to classify Internet access appropriately.

Comcast is 'in favor' of net neutrality because as part of their merger with NBC they have to adhere to net neutrality rules regardless.
However they only need to adhere to those rules until 2018, then they have no obligation to follow net neutrality.

Well if they are the type of die hard conservative that hates the liberal media, ask them if they really want the liberal media controlling the internet.
Because Comcast owns MSNBC and they would rather you visit MSNBC.com rather than Foxnews.com
There are probably better arguments but this one is pretty straight forward.
