Meanwhile, 46 of the PACs gave to at least half of the Republican objectors, the report found.

NEW YORK The head of the U.S. communications regulator said T-Mobile's nationwide, hours-long outage Monday was unacceptable and that the Federal Communications Commission will investigate. T-Mobile, one of the country's three largest cellphone service providers, said it had a voice and text wireless issue" that began around noon EDT Monday. The company blamed an internet-traffic issue that caused problems with its network for the outage. But calls between their customers and T-Mobile customers could have run into trouble because of T-Mobiles issues, creating the impression of a widespread communications failure. T-Mobile paid a $17.5 million fine for two nationwide service outages on the same day in August 2014, which together lasted three hours and prevented customers from being able to call 911.

(Richard Termine/Sesame Workshop via AP)Is a pandemic the perfect time to launch a new and relatively expensive streaming service? The phone company is investing billions in HBO Max, its first big entertainment venture since it spent $85 billion for Time Warner in 2018. HBO Max costs $15, same as the HBO Now streaming service it's supposed to replace, with discounts after the launch limited to some AT&T customers. Disney launched Disney Plus and the sports-focused ESPN Plus and took control of Hulu from an industry joint venture. It's easy to prompt HBO Now users to switch to Max if they signed up directly through HBO, and many big cable companies have agreed to promote HBO Max to their existing HBO customers.

AT&T, which is CNN's parent company, allegedly started throttling, or slowing speeds, for customers with unlimited data plans in 2011, according to the FTC. In 2015, the Federal Communications Commission fined AT&T $100 million for similar allegations about misleading "unlimited" plans. The FCC found AT&T subjected unlimited data plan customers to slower speeds after they used more than a certain amount of data per billing cycle. "AT&T promised unlimited data without qualification and failed to deliver on that promise," FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection Director Andrew Smith said in a press release. In July 2014, Verizon faced criticism from the FCC over plans to throttle the connections of unlimited data plan customers.

Not surprisingly, Warner Bros. stressed animation and programs like "Sesame Street" as a means of reaching kids a key component of the streaming business. Similarly, HBO Max will pad that portfolio of established fare for young adults via deals to stream "South Park" and "Doctor Who." That's a particularly good way of expressing what is, despite the meticulous planning by all these media companies, a great big gamble.

(CNN) - Rising content costs and fewer customers are forcing Sony to eliminate its live TV service. The live TV service was available as an internet-connected app for a number of devices, including Roku, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV and Sony's own PlayStation consoles. Sony launched Vue in 2015 along with a wave of other cord-cutter bundles offering live tv service as customers searched for cheaper alternatives to cable or satellite. For example, Dish Network's Sling, Hulu with live TV, Google's YouTube TV and AT&T's formerly named DirecTV Now (now known as AT&T TV Now) all began within two years of each other. The most popular service with live TV is Sling, with 2.4 million subscribers.

The activist investor also called for AT&T to buy back more stock, increase its dividend and pay down debt. Trump said in two tweets that the Elliott stake was "great news," adding that perhaps Elliott "will now put a stop to all of the Fake News emanating from its non-credible 'anchors.'" It's also worth noting that Elliott's stake, while significant, makes it just the sixth-largest institutional owner in AT&T, at a little more than 1%. Elliott Management is run by billionaire investor Paul Singer, who famously battled Argentina over its mutlibillion dollar debt defaults.

Justin Sullivan/Getty Images(CNN) - CBS and AT&T have reached a new carriage deal to end a nearly three-week blackout that affected millions of viewers. "CBS and AT&T regret any inconvenience to their customers and viewers and thank them for their patience," they said in joint a statement. At the heart of the dispute was the renewal rate that AT&T was willing to pay to carry CBS' programming. AT&T accused CBS of charging too much, while CBS said it was "simply looking to receive fair value for its popular programming." For several weeks, viewers on DirecTV and U-Verse were deprived of popular shows like "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" and "Big Brother."

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - In a clash of two of the states most-prominent companies, Florida Power & Light and AT&T Florida are battling in court and at the Federal Communications Commission about payments for the use of utility poles. AT&T pointed to a complaint it filed at the Federal Communications Commission alleging FPL has long charged unjust and unreasonable rates for AT&T to attach equipment to poles. After 43 years, AT&T Florida unilaterally stopped making contractually required payments to FPL despite repeated requests by FPL, the lawsuit said. The companies share an estimated 638,914 poles, with FPL owning 425,704 and AT&T owning 213,210, according to information in the Federal Communications Commission complaint. Removal of the attachments requires the expertise, knowledge and equipment of AT&T Florida's personnel because the AT&T Florida equipment and facilities are different from the equipment and facilities utilized by FPL, FPL lawyers wrote.

Justin Sullivan/Getty Images; Joe Raedle/Getty Images(CNN) - T-Mobile's mega-merger with Sprint can move forward, the Justice Department said Friday, paving the way for an unprecedented combination of America's third- and fourth-largest wireless providers. For weeks, Sprint and T-Mobile have been negotiating an agreement with the DOJ to address concerns that the merger may harm competition. Those airwaves could help rural Americans gain access to mobile Internet, according to the Justice Department. The Sprint and T-Mobile merger would help fulfill those goals, he said. The states, Sprint and T-Mobile have agreed to a trial date of Oct. 7 in federal court in New York.

In the terms of service cell phone customers have to sign (and few read), people give wireless companies the ability to collect and sell their location data. He added, "It's Big Brother Big Business, and if we don't act, it's going to get worse." Under the proposal, law enforcement agencies could still request and obtain location data legally, and so can emergency services. Federal, state or city law can still require data, and customers can still willingly provide their location data. In January, T-Mobile CEO John Legere said in a tweet that the company would end the practice of sharing location data with aggregators.

Ferre Dollar/CNN(CNN) - AT&T customers could soon be free of having to deal with annoying spam calls or at least that's AT&T's plan. The free service comes after a June Federal Communications Commission ruling that allows phone service providers to offer call-blocking on an opt-out basis. Spam calls are an annoyance for just about everyone with a cell phone. Other carriers offer similar options, though AT&T is so far the only to automatically block calls. Sprint offers a caller ID service, which it says may identify spam calls, for $2.99 per month.
