Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley today made the following statement regarding the proposed deal between AT&T and Time Warner.
“This is the biggest deal of the year, combining one of the nation’s largest telecommunications providers with a media and entertainment giant. It’s imperative that the antitrust regulators conduct a robust review of the proposed acquisition. As the process moves forward, the Senate, and the Judiciary Committee, can and will conduct oversight and ask questions about the transaction, including a hearing to examine the impact on competition and consumers.”
