DirecTV/EchoStar Deal Not So Easy
from the so-that's-why-they-negotiated-so-long dept
After over a year of talking merger, it was almost a huge relief when GM finally agreed to sell Hughes to EchoStar. However, before all the lawyers can breathe any sigh of relief they have plenty of work cut out for them. The NY Times takes a look at the many (possibly large) hurdles the deal faces from the government. Anyone want to take bets on the likelihood of Rupert Murdoch and somehow becoming involved with this again?
