$20. With the condition that prior to the sale that disgusting, ugly, hideous, unsightly, globe logo is purged and the cyclone is restored. Nothing reminiscent of the spawn of Satan is allowed.
get rid of that awful customer support. get people that are in merica and that are trained. id'e def pay more for that..

And WHO is this reporting this ???

Not ATT ...

As for Lay offs, that has absolutely NOTHING to do with them eventually selling D*.

ATT has lay offs EVERY YEAR ....

I've been living the Lay Off situation every year for at least the last 20 years now ...

One has nothing to do with the other ...
That site I posted is just called Thelayoff where current and former AT&T employees can post inside info anonymously. Fox Business is reporting the DTV news,

Wow ...
Total BS ...
Anyone can post whatever they want on that site ...
Everyone knows that ATT would like to sell D*, its rather obvious at this point since they destroyed what use to be a very good company ...
The Sat business has been declining since before ATT took over ...

Yes, someone may be thinking it, doesn't mean its happening ....

Anyone can say something and see if it sticks.

Yet I can't help but wonder what the creativity of any of those three companies could do to revive and further the satco idea.

it's all rumors. though i have my beer waiting to see what happens ;)
Better have more than one ....

When att bought D*, I said they would sell it off ....
Of course, not for a profit ...
And more employees will get laid off due to the sale, and then trying to lower the cost of doing business.

Who would want it besides DISH? And I don't think DISH has the money at the moment as they are so invested in their 5G project.
maybe Comcast or Charter Spectrum could buy it so they can sell a product to rural america and don't need to install cables of any kind for the purpose of TV.

That would never get through the government.

No, I mean let the DTV system die. Buying the full 119 spot might be worth buying. Maybe. But letting DTV cease ops and just absorb customers onto the Dish system who want to stay with sat would be easiest. Not keep both systems running.
How easy would that be, that would be a few million house calls to change out equipment.
