Union Asks FCC to Slow Review of Verizon, Cable Deal
This article is for subscribers only.
A union asked regulators to suspend consideration of Verizon Wireless’s proposed airwaves purchase from cable providers, saying the companies aren’t allowing full scrutiny of the $3.6 billion deal.
The Federal Communications Commission should stop its nonbinding 180-day clock for finishing its review, the Communications Workers of America told the agency in a letter today. The companies were late in producing documents that in some cases can’t be searched or read, the union said.
