AT&T, the largest telecom provider in the United States, has been funding at least 90% of far-right One America News (OAN) since the channel launched in 2013.
The channel struggled for sustained viewership until it started promoting the former guy’s big lie that the 2020 election was “stolen”.
The investigation by Reuters published Wednesday also reveals that AT&T’s push back on the report, claiming they simply “carried” the channel, is simply bogus.
Robert Herring Sr, founder and CEO of OAN, which shares a large overlap of viewers with Fox News, said in a 2019 deposition that the channel was the brainchild of AT&T executives.
