Bloomberg has a story about the FCC delays in approving the deal. AT&T, Centennial Said Merger Delay Would Be ‘Burden’
Amazing how politic's play into this & I am sure with the new administration taking over has alot to do with the delays, Almost a year for what seems like a small carrier merger with AT&T seems excessive, as for the concerns for PR I can see part of that but why not have them diversify some of it or do they want AT&T to end it's partnership with America Movil? interesting.
The Justice Department has OK'd the deal. Story on Bloomberg: AT&T Centennial Purchase Cleared by Antitrust Agency They are still waiting on FCC approval.
