Federal Communications Commission Commissioner Jonathan Adelstein on Thursday said the agency should take into consideration the concerns raised by 11 attorneys general about the controversial all-stock $13 billion merger of XM Satellite Radio Holdings and Sirius Satellite Radio. Commissioner Adelstein said the AGs' staffers told him the Justice Department did not give them an opportunity to air their concerns. The Justice Department approved the deal with no conditions, and the FCC's Media Bureau is still reviewing it.
