Dish May Cast a Wider Net
Having abandoned efforts to buy Sprint Nextel, Dish Network’s next move may be to resurrect merger talks with satellite rival DirecTV or re-engage wireless carrier T-Mobile, analysts said on Friday.
Dish earlier this year held preliminary discussions about a possible merger with the wireless phone company, which is majority owned by Deutsche Telekom AG, DTE.XE -0.42% according to people familiar with the matter.
