Time Warner Cable's shares are down 5.4% and Comcast is off 2.7% after
Bloomberg reported that Justice Department officials are "nearing a
recommendation to block" the $45 billion combination of the two
largest cable companies. What's more, the officials are not
negotiating with Comcast to come up with terms to ease the lawyers'
fears that the deal would hurt consumers, the news service says citing
unnamed sources.
