May 6, 1999 09:31 PM WASHINGTON, May 6 (Reuters) - A bill proposed on Thursday by two members of Congress from Virginia would prohibit AT&T Corp. T and other leading cable operators from striking exclusive service provider arrangements for their new high-speed Internet offerings. The bill drew strong opposition from the cable industry, however, and some leading Republicans are said to oppose it already. This should help show a little bit of the opposition.

It seems only right that AOL is based in Virginia. This is something I picked up, sorry if it's redundant. "If AOL would like to sit down at the table and negotiate a commercial arrangement, we would welcome that. If others wish to ride (on our systems), we are open to that," he said in a conference call with analysts and reporters. " "But his comments did not respond directly to concerns that AT&T will require AOL customers to pay for both AT&T's programming via AtHome Corp. ATHM and for AOL programming, in effect making AOL's service twice the cost of AT&T's own." ((-- New York newsdesk, 212-859-1840))
