AT&T CEO Vows
‘Independence’ for CNN in Merger With Time Warner
by Jeff Poor 24 Oct 2016
Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” Randall Stephenson, the
chairman and CEO of AT&T made
an appearance with current Time Warner chairman
and CEO Jeff Bewkes to promote the merger of AT&T and Time Warner.
Stephenson pledged an “independent” CNN, one of Time
Warner’s properties, should the merger proceed.
“I watch how Jeff manages this business today and I think
it’s a model of how we want to manage it in the future,” Stephenson said. “And
look, I think of a brand like CNN and the key variable of your brand is your
brand is your independence. And when people watch CNN, are they getting an
independent assessment in reporting of the news. The last thing we want to do
as AT&T is in anyway taint that in the slightest bit.
