The board already signed off on making an offer and exploring the purchase of Frontier. The regulatory hurdles will take 18+ months and orimises will need to be made.

Shellye L. Archambeau
Former CEO of MetricStream, Inc.
Roxanne S. Austin

The board is incompetent. They have overseen the demise of Verizon, while allowing an ineffective CEO to manipulate them into extending his tenure. A larger overhaul of the board and C Suite is much needed.
