Starting today, you can find me among these fine folks. Wish me luck.

Bloomberg Businessweek has been getting a lot of love lately, and rightfully so. The features are engaging, and the design – thanks mostly to Creative Director Richard Turley – is among the best in the industry. Check out the upcoming cover, featuring a spectacular photograph, high above ground zero. Here are some thoughts on the cover, from Turley’s Tumblr: There will be many MANY 9/11 covers in the coming weeks and I’m certain that this will not be the best one of that lot. But, I’m a sucker for aerial photography so I’m easily sold on this one. All credit for the picture goes to Karen Frank – our deputy photography director – who found this Vincent Laforet shot at the last minute. I’m all the more grateful for Karen’s find as I managed to somehow not know what was on the cover until Tuesday lunchtime (and we send the cover on Wednesday morning). We think Turley is selling himself a bit short – this cover is bound to be among the best.

The U.S. government sued to block AT&T Inc.’s proposed $39 billion acquisition of T-Mobile USA Inc., saying the deal would “substantially lessen competition” in the wireless market. The Justice Department complaint was filed today in federal court in Washington. The U.S. is seeking a declaration that Dallas-based AT&T’s takeover of T-Mobile, a unit of Deutsche Telekom AG (DTE), would violate U.S. antitrust law and a court order blocking any arrangement implementing the deal. “AT&T’s elimination of T-Mobile as an independent, low- priced rival would remove a significant competitive force from the market,” the U.S. said in its filing.
