FCC Still Says Will Not Regulate Broadband Cable

Sticking to his guns, Federal Communication Commission,
William Kennard, said yesterday he will not promote the
investigation into and regulation of high-speed cable
broadband services nor will he support local regulation of
this early stage industry. This response came after local and state
authorities asked him to take a look into the Open Access
matter. Organizations in opposition to the cable industry's demand
to keep their networks integral such as the Media Access Project
believe this stance does not honor the free market policy the FCC
promotes.

AOL & AT&T Rumors Still Flying

In the last issue, this publication predicted that in the breakup
of talks between Yahoo and AT&T, it would be perfectly
logical for AT&T to make a deal with AOL - although
there is much acrimony between the two companies
due to Open Access debates and the Internet Messenger
controversy. Within the last several days, however, rumors are
circulating that the two were speaking secretly. It seems
perfectly logical to ITVT that AT&T, in light of stock price problems
and other matters at the moment, make a deal with AOL not to
control them as a competitor but as a possible partner - how many
millions of subscribers can you pass up really? Besides, it will
quash further efforts by AOL to lobby government.
