    Edit Request

    [edit]

    NOTE: I’m proposing the following edits for FleishmanHillard on behalf of AT&T. I am a paid editor and aware of the COI guidelines. Please let me know of any questions or comments as you review. Thanks for your time and consideration. Jon Gray (talk) 17:44, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Recommend adding the following sentence (in bold, below) to the tail end of the existing section re: AT&T/One America News Network to account for the fact that AT&T refuted the claims made:

    AT&T denied the allegations, claiming that the company does not have a financial interest in OAN.[1]

    References

    1. ^ Shiffman, John (October 6, 2021). "How AT&T helped build far-right One America News". [Reuters]]. Retrieved October 8, 2021. After this story was published, AT&T issued a statement saying it has 'never had a financial interest in OAN's success and does not 'fund' OAN.'
    @Jon Gray: I have added the the first part of the quote unbolded. If you want to discuss the changes or make further changes, you can do so by replying below. Pabsoluterince (talk) 05:29, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Pabsoluterince: Thank you! Jon Gray (talk) 17:08, 3 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Removal of referenced content

    [edit]

    That comedian John Oliver who has a huge following in the US, and whose firm indirectly works for AT&T, criticized the company for its funding of the far-right conspiracy spreading channel OAN, with tens of millions of dollars, is highly relevant so that numerous sources picked up what Oliver said, so it should not be reverted like this.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 21:55, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    WP:BALASP What makes John Oliver's opinion due here? Including his non-neutral critism has little overall significance to this controversy and AT&T. Pabsoluterince (talk) 05:02, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Edit Request – Lead Section Corrections

    [edit]

    NOTE: I’m proposing the following edits for FleishmanHillard on behalf of AT&T. I am a paid editor and aware of the COI guidelines. A few pieces of information in the lead section are now outdated, so I’m proposing the following edits for accuracy. Please let me know of any questions or comments as you review. Thanks for your time and consideration. Jon Gray (talk) 21:31, 2 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

     Done. Note: I didn't use the alltopeverything.com citation for the world's largest telco by revenue addition. I've instead linked to List of largest companies by revenue article page, where one can see that is the case (and it carries a citation there). See Ptrnext (talk) 03:55, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
