Verizon-Cable Deal’s Terms Questioned as FCC Approves - Businessweek:

 "Verizon is buying unused airwaves from competitors including largest cable provider Comcast Corp. (CMCSA) and No. 2 Time Warner Cable Inc. (TWC), and has agreed to cooperate with the cable companies in marketing services and devising new products. Antitrust officials at the Justice Department approved the deal Aug. 16 with limits on cooperation, and the FCC’s action is the final regulatory clearance needed for the transaction."
