​AT&T played a significant hand in the creation and continual support of One America News, the far-right media outlet that built its coverage around election conspiracy theories and COVID misinformation, creating a "lucrative relationship" between the two companies, according to a Reuters investigation published Wednesday.

The founder of OAN testified in a 2019 deposition that the concept originated with AT&T.

Between the 2020 election and the January 6 insurrection, OAN enjoyed a boost to its relatively minor ratings and increasingly became former President Donald Trump's preferred cable network.
