Flash-LBSpecial Report-How AT&T helped build far-right One America News
https://www.yahoo.com/finance/...build-105543123.htmlSAN DIEGO (Reuters) - One America News, the far-right network whose fortunes and viewership rose amid the triumph and tumult of the Trump administration, has flourished with support from a surprising source: AT&T Inc, the world's largest communications company.
A Reuters review of court records shows the role AT&T played in creating and funding OAN, a network that continues to spread conspiracy theories about the 2020 election and the COVID-19 pandemic.
OAN founder and chief executive Robert Herring Sr has testified that the inspiration to launch OAN in 2013 came from AT&T executives.

I guess you haven’t seen the ‘glamour’ photos of AT&T’s saleswoman Milana Vayntrub.

She isn't terrible looking, but I've noticed that the latest round of AT&T commercials featuring "Lily" avoid showing her from the waist down.

BamaJeepsterHas AT&T renounced all ties, offered a few billion to BLM in atonement and begged for forgiveness yet?

That's her choice... she's been interviewed many times about harassing feedback following her first few AT&T commercials.
So now she covers up a bit more and "hides" behind props.
I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. October 07, 2021, 07:12 AM
Pipe SmokerVery interesting report Flash. And yes, I’m maximally surprised that AT&T supported the formation of OAN.
“Milana Aleksandrovna Vayntrub; Uzbek Cyrillic: Милана Александровна Вайнтруб; born March 8, 1987 is a Soviet-born American actress, comedian and activist. The daughter of Jewish refugees, she began her career as a child actress shortly after immigrating to the United States.”

blueyeInteresting since AT&t owns Warner Media who owns CNN.

bdylanIt's probable that AT&T still has a few misguided executives that feel its their job to make profits for the company. Don't worry, they will be disabused of that idea or likely fired.

Lefty SigCNN was hand wringing about the scandal of AT&T helping create a "misinformation" network.
This coming from the people that lied about Russia collusion, burried Hunter's laptop, called riots "mostly peaceful", etc.

ensigmaticWell, I guess I detest the thing that calls itself "at&t" just a little >< bit less this morning
