AT&T courts DirecTV

AT&T is in talks to buy DirecTV for at least $50 billion, and the two sides are said to be actively working toward an announcement, according to a New York Times report.

The two companies are reportedly negotiating, and the terms of a deal are not expected to be released in the next two weeks.
