STATEMENT OF COMMISSIONER HAROLD W. FURCHTGOTT-ROTH, 
APPROVING IN PART AND DISSENTING IN PART

In the Matter of Applications for Consent to the Transfer of Control of Licenses and 
Section 214 Authorizations from MediaOne Group, Inc., Transferor, To AT&T Corp., 
Transferee, CS Docket No. 99-251

Order on Reconsideration


	I approve of this item because it disposes of the Petition for Reconsideration 
before the Commission and finally brings closure to this merger proceeding. 
	I dissent because I continue to take issue with the review process that engulfed the 
Commission during the AT&T/MediaOne merger. As I have stated many times before, I 
believe that we should review license transfer proposals for consistency with the 
Communications Act and existing administrative regulations.  That is all we are 
empowered to do. I did not support the public interest framework for the merger then and 
I cannot support it now.  
	I hold out hope that future merger reviews and related actions by this Commission 
will be straightforward, expedient, and consonant with applicable law.  We owe the public 
nothing less.
