When AT&T purchased CNN I personally dropped AT&T phone and Direct TV. CNN at the direction of AT&T is using stimulus money to keep CNN financially standing on its own so they don’t have to infuse more money into CNN.
AT&T is good at using other peoples money to fund their projects.
Good deal.
Yes, CNN & MS/NBC should be standing on their own. Telecom is licensed infrastructure — a utility. No way in Hell should telecom control the news.
CNN is ATT
MS/NBC is Comcast
Unfortunately, few give a damn.
