As citizens we are alarmed whenever the free marketplace of ideas is impeded by
political censorship. As shareholders we are most concerned about the impact
such controversy can have on AT&T’s reputation among consumers and its good
standing in regulatory and legislative communities.
I bet the company wasn't expecting an attack for its actions from the board room. One thing I think that Americans don't understand is that corporations are held to the account of a board of directors that is made up of investors. While some of the investors might only be concerned about the money to be made that is not the universal case. There are some who care about issues and understand that a company has a public duty to up hold. As far as this case goes, I have not covered it much because I give it to ATT, this time. They said it was a mistake and I believe them.
