AT&T has told employees that hiring President Trump's personal lawyer was a "big mistake." AT&T is also reportedly forcing its chief lobbyist to retire.

"Our company has been in the headlines for all the wrong reasons these last few days and our reputation has been damaged," AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson told employees in an internal memo Friday. "There is no other way to say it—AT&T hiring Michael Cohen as a political consultant was a big mistake."
