TCI's (TCOMA) merger with AT&T is old news. TCOMA is the cable company. I admit my knowledge of TSAT is nil but this is what I pulled off of Yahoo: TSAT is TCI Satellite Entertainment, a distributor of digital satellite-based television services in the United States. TSAT markets and distributes the PRIMESTAR programming service. PRIMESTAR Partners, LP (the Partnership) and its partners (the Partners) including TSAT, formed a new, national company by contributing their digital satellite customers and Partnership interests into the newly created, privately held PRIMESTAR. TSAT is currently a publicly held entity with a 37% ownership interest in PRIMESTAR.
