This is according to CNNfn. After rebuffing an offer from Comcast Cable, the 3rd largest US cable company, AT&T, the largest US cable operator, is apparently in talks to merge its cable TV operation with AOL/Time-Warner, the second largest, leaving AOL in charge of the whole she-bang. This would create a company reaching almost 29 million households, which is around half of the entire US cable TV market. I can’t even work up the energy to comment on this one. Both companies have owned my local cable TV operation, and I can’t think of one nice thing to say about either.
