...YORK: AT&T got the bride -- but it's letting Comcast share the dowry. In a string of deals announced late Tuesday, the former Ma Bell became the nation's No. 1 cable company when it finally won MediaOne's hand. Comcast, for stepping aside, gets to buy 2 million of AT&T's cable subscribers to further solidify its current position as a regional powerhouse and national No. 3.

...YORK: Ma Bell is turning into the Cable Guy. AT&T made a surprise bid late Thursday to break up a planned MediaOne-Comcast merger and claim MediaOne for its own. Doing so would make AT&T the largest cable company in the world (surpassing Time Warner, parent company of TIME Daily), with three quarters of its subscribers in 15 of the top 20 markets -- bringing the ex-monopoly within sight of its pre-breakup glory days.
