Kennard is no different than most high government officials. He is just looking for his behind when his term ends. Wanna bet he gets a consulting job with a cable company within a year and half? The speech he gave to the cable industry today sounded more like he was an advocate for the cable industry than the chairman of a supposedly neutral governmental agency, responsible for rule-making. Kennard's speech should raise some eyebrows as to his ability to be impartial in the broadband-cable issue. As a result, I believe AOL should not expect much from the FCC. However, local government litigation may be a strategy which may suit AOL, in slowing T's execution of its cable strategy. Of course, the best solution would be for an allright deal (this is getting old!) with T. Tar
