Bell Atlantic seeks waiver to merge with cable firms
Bell Atlantic asks the Justice Department to back a federal court waiver on long distance restrictions tied to the 1984 AT&T divestiture as it moves to merge with Tele-Communications Inc. and Liberty Media Corp. The company argues the decree blocks cable and satellite service beyond regional limits and seeks authority to deliver programming nationwide. Bell Atlantic also reports fourth quarter and annual profits rising on stronger revenue.
