License Agreement

I am still curious as to how they manage to ignore the agreement they made when they got their FCC licenses that neither one would acquire the other. I guess such agreements are worth about as much as any other agreements they will make in the future. BOHICA.

Companies ignore agreements all the time. Government changes its mind like it changes its socks.

They made the agreement with the FCC. And the FCC can decide to let them out of that agreement. The FCC did NOT make the agreement with the American people - only with the 2 companies involved.

They didn't ignore anything. Part of the merger process was the application to the FCC to approve the merger because of the existing license restrictions.

Bankruptcy of one would be better

The real shame is that even if one of these companies went bankrupt, then their spectrum would be available for a new competitor. If they merge, you can bet they won't be freeing up any spectrum.
