Thread regarding AT&T layoffs

Satellite-TV providers DirecTV, Dish in talks to merge again: Bloomberg

Sep 14, 2024 3:55 PM ET | AT&T Inc. (T) | Vansh Agarwal, SA News Editor

“The deal would create the largest pay-TV provider in the U.S., but it's not the first time the companies have tried to merge. The companies attempted to combine in 2022, but were blocked by the U.S. Justice Department. 

According to the report, the deal discussions between DirecTV and EchoStar are in the early stages. An agreement has not yet been reached, and the talks could still end without one.”

If it happens get ready for more layoffs.

ATT buys DTV for 49 Billion.
ATT sells DTV for 7 Billion to a new spinoff (New DTV) owned by ATT itself and cronies Dallas based TPG.

That’s a 42 Billion dollar discount to their own spinoff company leaving YOU, the ATT shareholder left holding the bag in the form of a 50 pct. stock decrease.

Now the New DTV company (ATT and TPG) wants to merge with Dish/Echostar.

I can’t wait to see the numbers and spin on this deal, not to mention the increased debt left for the TBag holders. They sure can shake that snake can’t they.

Fake news. Dish is not interested in DTV any more. They are smarter than Stankey and not going to repeat the history. DTV is not profitable.

Left DTV after being a long term subscriber. Went with a company that offered me a price that was reserved for “NEW” DTV customers. Perhaps if this goes through the new company will have the financials to treat the existing customers like a new one.
