| It's simple logic. To say that AT&T and Verizon control 90% of access lines would be to assume that they control all of the markets. This would be to say that Qwest, Cox, Comcast, Embarq and all of the other players do not have any presence in the reset of the country beyond 10%. Here in Arizona, I can chose between Qwest, Cox, Integra, Level 3, Time Warner Telecom, etc.
Anyone can throw out a number and claim it to be true, but 90% is a ridiculus number. People tend to believe numbers that are represented in articles (whether or not they are true). |
