With (unfortunately) no help from Ada, the following appeared in my magazine input today, concerning the take-over of T-Mobile by AT&T: Columbia Urban League: "This deal would help extricate barriers keeping our members from attaining ... benefits working towards the end of the digital divide." and GLAAD: "The merger will increase functionality and speed, thus growing engagement and improving the effectiveness of the online advocacy work that is advancing equality for all." One might wonder from where said barriers are being "extricated". Ex-Lax, anyone?
