| said by TScheisskopf  :Perhaps. Or maybe, it will put the lie to the figures the FCC and the incumbents have been using. They wouldn't be fighting this if their skirts were clean. I doubt if the 'figures' are a lie. Just remember, you have 'lies, damn lies, and STATISTICS'. Just because the way they present it builds a case for one thing does not mean they lied, just that they did not show the other side of the numbers that you want to see. And they are not lying, just not telling you the story YOU want to hear (and the rest of us slaves to the corporations, not counting certain stock holders).
I believe that the FCC is telling the truth, the number of zip codes served is as they say. *BUT*, what they are not telling us is the PERCENTAGE of possible served units that actually can get service and what levels of service they receive for a given zip code. And that is what WE as users want to see.
While the FCC is not lying, it could be said that they are not playing with the truth either. Statistics, I have seen that field of math used to prove what ever the big boss wants, just manipulate the way you display your data.
