This merger would have created a monopoly in the direct broadcast satellite (DBS) market that would have adversely affected consumers and workers. EchoStar exhibited a pattern of threats and unlawful dismissals in an attempt to intimidate employees from exercising their rights in the workplace by refusing to negotiate an agreement or bargain in good faith.
