Going Backwards

AT&T already tried the cable TV racket and ended up selling it off to Comcast for less than what they paid for it. What makes them think that they would run Echostar any better?

Indeed. Why would they buy another TV company if their last purchase failed? Of course, that was all before SBC.

The new at&t is touted a a communication and entertainment company. It knows it needs content, which it currently
lacks. If it can gobble up Dish Network for cheap, it will to gain more control over content distribution.

It is deja vu all over again, circa 1998, this time with content, not last mile access.
