Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

AT&T struggling to be heard in Washington DC?

On Tuesday, Trump announced a list of CEOs that will be advising him on when and how to reopen the country’s economy. AT&T was NOT on the list, but Verizon, T-Mobile, Comcast were.

Also, last week AT&T announced former RNC Chairman Ed Gillespie will now lead lobbying efforts in Washington. He is replacing Jim Cicconi.

To me, these stories show that AT&T may be struggling to be heard in Washington DC right now. Not a good situation to be in as the government negotiates bailouts & plans for a big infrastructure spending bill in the next month or two.

CNN lies constantly, if you think otherwise remember the Sister of man shot by Chicago police calls for piece and an end to violence. CNN has been busted multiple times, as a long term at&t employee i am embarrassed to have us associated with such unethical hacks.

it's surprising randy wasn't invited, as he's created the company with the most debt in the entire history of the world. you would think his dumb moves would be of interest of the fed, which has 6 trillion out there propping up the entire system, which is broke and insolvent

CNN reports accurate, factual news and doesn’t bow down to the president.
