CORNING CHAMBER Fa rm er s' Ma rk et r et ur ni ng J un e 5, 3 3r d an nu al J r. R od eo By Ryan Nakashima TheAssociatedPress LOS ANGELES Antitrust ex- perts say AT&T's bid for Di- recTV could reap immediate regulatory rewards. Coming so quickly on the heels of a rival cable company merger makes it easier for regula- tors to approve both trans- actions because they create two counterbalanced giants in pay TV. Experts say the poten- tial benefits of bigger scale, cost savings and promised reinvestment in networks to create speedier connections could be seen to outweigh the damage done to consum- ersbyareductioninthenum- ber of competitors. "The antitrust regula- tors might be thinking about Comcast-Time Warner Ca- ble becoming a Goliath with lots of small Davids," said Amanda Wait, a former anti- trust attorney with the Fed- eral Trade Commission and partner at Hunton & WiIl- iams LLP in New York. "WhattheAT&Tdealdoes — if it gets approved — is it creates another strong com- petitor that looks more like a Goliath than a David. It levels the playing field a little bit," she said. Even so, each deal brings a unique set of potential harms. For a quarter of the nation's households, AT&T Inc.'s com- bination with DirecTV will reduce the number of pay TV competitors from four to three, which raises the possi- bility that consumers will face higherpricesinthosemarkets. Meanwhile,ComcastCorp. and Time Warner Cable Inc. will serve 30 million Internet subscribers, a figure that is growing. That's roughly dou- blethesizeofitsnearestcom- petitor—AT&Twith16.5mil- lion—andcouldgiveitanun- precedented ability to charge content providers for priority access to its subscribers un- der new Internet rules being considered by regulators. Both entities' TV services would be roughly the same size — AT&T-DirecTV will have 26 million pay TV sub- scribers,Comcast-TimeWar- ner Cable, about 30 million. Although each deal will be examined on its own by the Federal Communications Commission and the De- partment of Justice, regula- tors look at the current and future marketplace, accord- ing to DOJ spokeswoman Gina Talamona. "We consider the market as it exists today and where the market may be heading with any pending or pro- posed deals," she said. ComcastandTimeWarner Cable don't compete in each other's service areas, so the merger of those companies won'treduceconsumerchoice. But AT&T and DirecTV compete head-to-head in 22 states for TV customers. Mergingwillreduceconsumer options in many of those mar- kets to three — the local cable operator, AT&T-DirecTV and satellite provider Dish Net- workCorp.,whichhas14.1mil- lion customers. Harry Davis, a regulatory issues lawyer with Schulte Roth & Zabel in New York, said the reduction in compe- tition won't matter to regula- torsaslongastherearethree strong competitors. "Most of the studies that have been done suggest that as long as you have three strong competitors, you have less likelihood of any one competitor being able to raise prices," he said.
