The title says "Reuters Special Report", but it really means "Launch of Pressure Campaign against AT&T to Cancel Bad-guy News Channel".
OAN is also a competitor to Reuters (origin of the hit piece) and Mediate (booster of hit piece in the article). Whatever you think about OAN, and even leaving the ideological differences aside, there's something so perfect about using your own news channel to bash your competitor as a "self-styled news channel" and "far-right" that needs to be taken off the air.
A alternate-universe mirror image of this article basically writes itself, delineating how the US government funds "far-left" NPR, or how various foundations and venture capitalists helped build whatever other news sites that have reported falsehoods or incited violence, and that they all need to be defunded.
