Preventing Corporate Takeover of the Internet
The People s Media
Joseph Torres, Yes! Magazine: ''AT&T spared no expense in 2011 when it sought government approval of its $39 billion deal to acquire T-Mobile. The merger would have created a duopoly, leaving AT&T and Verizon in control of nearly 80 percent of the wireless market.... Despite AT&T's massive political influence, the Department of Justice filed an antitrust lawsuit in August to block the merger. Days before Thanksgiving, the FCC announced its opposition. How did a giant corporation like AT&T fail to win approval of its merger?''
