Subject: 3 Reasons to Avoid AT&T Stock in 2023
By Jeremy Bowman
A turnaround seems unlikely for the telecom giant.
One of the most important skills a value investor can have is being able
to tell the difference between a value stock and a value trap.
Take AT&T, for example. The telecom giant has long been popular for its
high dividend yield, but its stock performance has been consistently
underwhelming.

Subject: Was This $100 Billion Deal the Worst Merger Ever?
At Time Warner, executives saw AT&T as just a “big phone company from
Texas.” At AT&T, they thought Hollywood would play by their rules. That
combination led to strategic miscalculation unrivaled in recent
corporate history.
By James B. Stewart
James B. Stewart, a columnist at The New York Times, interviewed more
than two dozen people involved in the AT&T-Time Warner merger and its
aftermath, including both former chief executives.
Soon after a sweeping courtroom victory in 2018 cleared the way for
AT&T’s $100 billion takeover of Time Warner, John Stankey, AT&T’s chief
operating officer and the newly anointed chief executive of Warner
Media, summoned his top Warner Media executives to a meeting at the Time
Warner Center off Columbus Circle.
They included Kevin Tsujihara, the head of the Warner Bros. movie
studio; Richard Plepler, the head of HBO; and Jeff Zucker, CNN’s chief
executive. Mr. Stankey handed them a typed document titled “Operating
Cadence and Style,” and sat there while they read it. The memo was two
pages, single-spaced, and the silence stretched for what seemed an
excruciating length.

Subject: T-Mobile Data Breach: You Could Claim Up TO $25K - But
You'll Need To Do It Soon
More than 76 million T-Mobile customers could claim part of a $350
million payout, after a huge data breach.
By Ben Demers
Since 2021, T-Mobile has been reeling from a massive data breach
affecting the personal information of more than 76 million customers.
The telecom giant announced in August 2021 (opens in new tab) that
hackers had accessed countless customer names, Social Security numbers,
phone numbers, addresses and dates of birth.
The plaintiffs' attorneys announced a consolidated class action
lawsuit in May 2022, alleging that “T-Mobile completely failed to meet
its privacy obligations and protect sensitive consumer data. Instead,
T-Mobile suffered one of the largest and most consequential data
breaches in U.S. history.”

Subject: AT&T Outage In Elmhurst May Be More Widespread [teecom]
Residents say the problem is bigger than the company originally
acknowledged.
By David Giuliani
ELMHURST, IL – A number of Elmhurst residents reached out to Patch to
say that an AT&T internet outage may be wider than the company
acknowledged Wednesday.
In an email, Barry Rollins, who lives in the 700 block of South Fairview
Avenue, said he has been without AT&T service for nearly a week.
“The problem is far more widespread than AT&T has told you, and they
know that,” he told Patch. “Based on my experience, AT&T has figured out
how to ignore or deflect their problems and blame it on the ‘weather’ or
say it’s at a hub, or an isolated incident. These are all answers my
family has received from AT&T; answers depend on which AT&T rep finally
answers the phone.”
