FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler has named some anti-trust specialists to the teams established to coordinate the agency's review of merger applications from Charter Communications (NASDAQ:CHTR), Time Warner Cable (NYSE:TWC), and Bright House Networks. The parties filed their transaction applications with the Commission on June 25.
Owen M. Kendler will join the Office of General Counsel to lead the working team responsible for the review of the proposed transaction. Kendler comes to the FCC on a detail from the Department of Justice, where he was most recently as assistant chief, Telecommunications & Media Enforcement Section, in DOJ's Antitrust Division.
William Rogerson will serve as senior economist overseeing the review of the proposed transaction. Most recently, Rogerson served as the senior economist on the Comcast-TWC and AT&T-DirecTV transactions.
