Both sides skeptical about AT&T-Time Warner deal

WASHINGTON (AP) - AT&T's $85.4 billion proposed purchase of Time
Warner is facing skepticism from all sides in the presidential race.
Hillary Clinton's running mate, Tim Kaine, says he shares concerns
about higher costs, fewer choices and worse service. He says more
competition and less consolidation is generally helpful in the media
industry.
Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon says Clinton believes that regulators
should scrutinize the deal closely.
Donald Trump says he'd block the deal if elected. His campaign says in
a statement Sunday that "new media conglomerate oligopolies" have too
much control, intrude on Americans' personal lives and unduly
influence politics.
