U.S. Files Antitrust Complaint to Block AT&T, T-Mobile Merger - Bloomberg

The U.S. government sued to block AT&T Inc.’s proposed $39 billion acquisition of T-Mobile USA Inc., saying the deal would “substantially lessen competition” in the wireless market.

“AT&T’s elimination of T-Mobile as an independent, low- priced rival would remove a significant competitive force from the market,” the U.S. said in its filing.

Yeah, anyone with an Econ background could have seen this coming a mile away.

This should also put an end to any rumors of Verizon buying up Sprint as well.
