'Turns out, AT&T has been up to some s***,' the 'Last Week Tonight' host said. 'And it is worth noting, AT&T is still technically our 'Business Daddy,' making OAN our 'Business Stepsibling,' and not in a hot way.'
According to Reuters, which reviewed court records, OAN founder and chief executive Robert Herring Sr. testified that AT&T executives were the ones who told him to launch the network. They told us they wanted a conservative network,” Herring said in a 2019 deposition, according to Reuters. “They only had one, which was Fox News, and they had seven others on the other [left-wing] side. When they said that, I jumped to it and built one.
Oliver then showed a clip of an OAN broadcaster opining that anyone who worked the 2020 election, including poll workers who ran voting machines, is guilty of treason, which would carry the penalty of death.
That gave Oliver an opening. “That is such a relief,” he said, noting he wanted to “use that generous editorial independence to give some constructive feedback” to AT&T.
