"Did I miss something here? Why would AT&T be interested in buying a "satellite tv" company when it's concerned about bringing tv, phone, and internet via fiber optic network?"

Satellite and landlines for people in the country and IPTV and VOIP for cityfolk, I guess. I can't see fiber optic networks in small towns across the US, It's also a good backup plan if Uverse doesn't take off like they expect it to.
