Why Dish Is Uneasy about a T-Mobile–Sprint Merger
Dish Network (DISH) has reservations about T-Mobile (TMUS) and Sprint (S) merging. The company has written to US regulators reviewing the T-Mobile–Sprint merger proposal to block the two wireless providers from combining, according to a Reuters report citing government filings. Dish argues that T-Mobile and Sprint have exaggerated their arguments for a need to combine and that a merger of the two would result in higher prices for wireless consumers.
