Will the DirecTV, AT&T merger help the Pac-12 Network?

The merger is looking more and more optimistic... So, if it happens, will America's (formerly) 2nd place TV provider finally carry the Pac-12 Network?

As the famous phrase goes: When one multi-bazillion dollar television and entertainment mega-merger gets struck down by government and public pressure, another one is close behind. My parents used to say that all the time when I was a child.

I never fully understood what they meant by that until right this moment.

The huge merger between Comcast and Time Warner was officially declared dead on April 24th. Now, another huge merger is right around the corner as AT&T's buy out of DirecTV is coming to the end of it's governmental regulatory process.
