T-Mobile and Sprint execs tell senators merger would improve, not hurt, competition [telecom]
By Mike Snider
A Senate Judiciary subcommittee's look Wednesday into the T-Mobile-Sprint merger's potential impact on competition came down to simple arithmetic: Does subtracting one of the top four wireless competitors leave three competitors or two?
T-Mobile's all-stock deal for Sprint would create a $146 billion wireless provider in a better position to compete against the two largest carriers, AT&T and Verizon, the companies have said. The merger, announced in April, is also under scrutiny by the Justice Department.
