AT&T Completes Acquisition of Centennial Communications

After agreeing to (1) divest certain assets in Mississippi and Louisiana, (2) honor Centennial’s existing agreements, and (3) restricting the flow of competitive information with partially owned AT&T subsidiary American Movil, the FCC cleared the way for AT&T to complete its acquisition of Centennial Communications.  FCC Commissioner Michael Copps, while concurring in the decision, expressed concern about Centennial’s rural customers.  “Too many rural areas have been abandoned,” he wrote, “when the marriage did not produce the big company profits sought by the market.”
