GLAAD kills support for AT&T/T-Mobile deal after astroturfing uproar
http://j.mp/na5rmW (ars technica)
"The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) no longer
supports AT&T's $39 billion buyout of T-Mobile. The group has just
sent a letter to the FCC rescinding its earlier support for the
deal-support that was so controversial, the group's president and six
of its board members all resigned in the last few weeks after backing
the deal. GLAAD had received money from AT&T, and an ex-AT&T lobbyist
served as a GLAAD board member (and may have prompted the initial
letter of support)."
