TIME FOR MERGER, NOT DEBATE, SAYS AT&T
[SOURCE: Broadcasting&Cable, AUTHOR: John Eggerton]
AT&T says that its merger with BellSouth is not the proper venue for an extended policy debate on network neutrality. AT&T Executive VP External and Legislative Relations Jim Cicconi said Wednesday, "The proper place to be debating the pros and cons of net neutrality is in the U.S. Congress or in an industry-wide proceeding at the FCC. It is not appropriate or justified to set policy in this area based on applying merger conditions on only one company."
