FCC Commissioner Jessica Rosenworcel “does not prejudge transactions that have not been filed,” a Rosenworcel spokesman said Thursday. The Wall Street Journal had reported that Rosenworcel has said in private meetings that she does not believe No. 3 and No. 4 U.S. wireless carriers Sprint and T-Mobile US can remain viable as independent entities (http://on.wsj.com/RWkytJ). FCC and Department of Justice officials have been skeptical of a merger of the two carriers, which would leave the U.S. with three major wireless carriers (CD Feb 6 p1).
