FCC Seeks More Info From AT&T on DirecTV Deal

The Federal Communications Commission has asked AT&T for even more information on its proposed merger with DirecTV, suggesting that some of the earlier information did not quite compute. In a follow-up to a Sept. 9 request for data, the FCC sent a request asking for answers to some supplemental questions by Dec. 22. The FCC also seeks further info on broadband speed calculations, expected data rates, cell sites and other broadband-related questions. There are also follow-up questions about churn rates and pricing.
