   AT&T and Verizon have been widely mocked for their mostly unsuccessful   
   forays into the media and content industry.   
      
   Specifically, AT&T splurged $85 billion on Time Warner in 2018 only to   
   offload it to Discovery this year. Similarly, Verizon acquired AOL in   
   2015 for $4.4 billion and Yahoo in 2017 for $4.5 billion only to sell   
   them to Apollo Global Management this year for $5 billion.
