Makes final case for Time Warner deal



By John Eggerton



The Department of Justice used bad numbers to come to the wrong conclusion about AT&T-Time Warner merger--that it would substantially lessen competition--and a lower court was right to reject that conclusion and allow the deal.



That was the gist of AT&T's final brief before oral argument in the Trump Administration's continuing effort to prevent AT&T from owning both the DirecTV satellite TV platform and Turner programming including sports nets, HBO and CNN.
