AT&T shareholders demand answers
By DAVID SALEH RAUF | 2/7/12
... This year, investor angst will focus on a range of industries, from defense to the auto sector, and a large number of tech stalwarts the likes of Google, IBM and Intel, according to Institutional Shareholder Services, the largest proxy advising consulting firm.
... AT&T, which runs Washington’s largest corporate PAC, will be pushed by investors to publish a semiannual report that tracks where every political dollar goes and what cause that money supports.
... This year, however, AT&T investors are planning to put the measure up for vote again, and they’ll have fresh ammunition on their side as the company is coming off a publicly bruising and politically expensive battle over its failed T-Mobile deal.
“AT&T’s recent complete disaster in the Deutsche Telekom deal … that’s exactly the kind of thing that will make the board and managers and shareholders think long and hard about disclosure of political activity,” said John Coates, a corporate governance expert and professor at Harvard Law School.

AT&T gets paid millions by the CIA to give up user data
The second-largest telecom company in the United
States has been on the Central Intelligence Agency’s payroll to the tune
of $10 million a year in exchange for voluntarily handing over troves
of phone logs, the New York Times reported Thursday. >> Citing federal officials with knowledge of the program, The
Times’ Charlie Savage wrote that telecommunication giant AT&T
has been routinely collaborating in CIA investigations by
surrendering phone records to the agency and even scouring vast
archives of dated logs on their behalf since at least 2010,
adding yet another scandalous chapter in the sordid story of the
telecom’s long-lasting and often elusive relationship with the
government.
