    >The Journal report doesn't use the word "sale" to describe what AT&T is considering, but the end result could be AT&T no longer owning DirecTV.

    You don't have to repeat corporate nonsense-speak that makes them sound like less of a failure. If they are selling the unit then write that they are selling it. Stop letting your source put their dumb spin on it.

    Maybe it is just me but from a long term revenue / profit standpoint all that money they spend on satellite TV would have been better spent on Fiber.

    AT&T has so, so many OTT streaming assets.

    TV is going the way of the dinosaur, my kids would rather watch video on their phone than the TV.
