distribute time warner content. it's the first time in decades the justice department has challenged the vertical merger which links companies that don't directly compete. at&t said it would fight the case. >> this was a case where we are prepared to go to trialal as son as possible e and hopefully that will happen as quickly as 60 days.. >> at&t will likely press for a court decision by april 22. the u.k. havein accused a drug company of overcharging the country's national health service by billions. competition in markets authority says concorde he abused its dominant position by charging too much for a key thyroid medication. the nhs spent over 38 billion it, up from 700,000 in 2006.
