It took Dan Gillmor a while to figure out why the Echostar (Dish Network) / Hughes Electronics (DirecTV) merger was quashed. I guess he hadn't been paying attention; Rupert Murdoch's fingerprints were all over it from the beginning. Given Murdoch's craven caving in to authority in the past, I'm not hopeful for the future of satellite TV here.
