Report claims AT&T helped build One America News

Posted online

A Reuters report claims AT&T Inc. helped build far-right network One America News.

OAN founder and CEO Robert Herring Sr. has testified that the inspiration for the network came from AT&T executives, according to the report.

Further, court records show AT&T has provided tens of millions of dollars to OAN. Reuters reports 90% of OAN's revenue came from a contract with AT&T-owned television platforms, including satellite broadcaster DirecTV.

“We have always sought to provide a wide variety of content and programming that would be of interest to customers, and do not dictate or control programming on channels we carry,” said AT&T spokesperson Jim Greer. “Any suggestion otherwise is wrong.”
