SBC bought AT&T, and then made that the primary marketing name.

The execs are mostly SBC, as I understand it.

This may have been a mistake, since the *reason* AT&T was ripe to be
bought in the first place was that the mistakes made by McCaw Cellular,
to whom they licensed the AT&T Wireless tag "broke their brand". Or so
I understand it to be widely thought in those circles.
