Liberty Out Of Deutsche Telekom Cable Auction, Says FT

Liberty Media is thought to be out of the running to acquire the cable assets of Deutsche Telekom for the second time, according to a report in the Financial Times. The paper quotes insiders as saying that Liberty’s consortium has failed to make it to the latest round of the auction.
Last year, Liberty tabled a E5.5 billion for the six regional cable franchises, but was thwarted by the German anti-trust regulators (see German Regulators Block Liberty Cable Deal).
