Leakage of merger at & T: it comes to prices and reduction in competition

A member of AT & T legal staff inadvertently (and briefly) has posted an internal document damning for the folder from the FCC for the of AT & T/T-Mobile merger pending. The document clearly indicates that "AT & T is giving Deutsche Telekom 39 billion, mainly to reduce competition in the market" and that the claims of the company of the largest network expansions and increased employment are totally fictional.

Yet again, the reality seems that AT & T is giving Deutsche Telekom 39 billion, mainly to reduce competition in the market. This price tag eliminates T-Mobile full - and makes Sprint (and by proxy new LTE partner LightSquared and current partner Clearwire) more sensitive to the failure to the dominance of the market AT & T/Verizon 80%. How do you dominance of broadband wireless market applies to AT & T for the next decade? After all, AT & T will be first of all say you there is a "tsunami" coming, with AT & T and Verizon on the shore of billing with impatient users up to $10 per gigabyte of wireless data.

Regardless of the motivation behind rejecting the deployment of LTE 97%, the letter is from AT & T is claim they need to T-Mobile to improve coverage of 80-97% LTE simply not true. It is a huge problem for AT & T, since almost every politician and non-profit has expressed to the merger has therefore largely based on that possible promise. It is also a problem when it comes to the review of the Department of justice, since the evidence that the AT & T could complete their build LTE for much less that the cost of this transaction means the transaction does not meet standard of the MJ of fusion-specific benefits.
