For sure that deal goes through AT&T is one of the top donors to both political parties, they do what they want....
I dont think Sprint needs VZ to buy them, plus that deal would never go through. If they really need a buyer it would have to be someone currently outside the Wireless industry, like one of the big cable or internet companies.
Everyone says this deal is bad for S because it will raise prices and reduce innovation. I guess i dont get it, if AT&T and VZ raise their prices and stop innovating, wont that help Sprint? I mean if they have the lowest prices and most innovative devices, that should be a positive right? What am i missing here?
