T-Mobile and Sprint are merging

I am trying to get some work done, put pages are refusing to load. As far as I know it is the server and there is not anything that I could do. I decided to load Fox News while I was waiting just because people decide they are angry when Fox News comes up.

To be honest, browsing their home page was annoying, but whatever. This is the only headline that interested me. "The merger will create more new jobs than T-Mobile and Sprint would separately, the two companies said in a press release." https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/...all-stock-deal

Has that ever happened in the history of mergers? Don't they always lay off redundant positions--in the case of Albertson's and Safeway, all of the competent Safeway staff probably responsible for the company being profitable?

Don't blame Fox, this is from T-Mobile.com: "Combination Will Create Thousands of American Jobs and Boost U.S. Economic Growth." https://newsroom.t-mobile.com/news-a...s/5gforall.htm
