AT&T CEO: More fiber is the company's top-priority

When it came to naming the company's top-priorities, AT&T CEO John Stankey said adding more fiber topped the list. AT&T's second key priority is making sure that it has broadband connectivity on 5G, which means even more fiber. Stankey said anything AT&T could do to put more fiber out into the network was a top priority because fiber fuels both the consumer and business segments. "When you have a great 5G network, you're deploying a lot of fiber, and that's something that we think are married well," Stankey said. "And we think we're in a very unique position because the fiber that we deploy not only powers our wireless business, but it helps our consumer business and fixed broadband. It helps our enterprise customers and how we deal with them as well, and so we strategically want to make sure we're doing that."
