§ 13-508.1. Separate subsidiary requirement for certain electronic publishing. A telecommunications carrier that offers or provides both competitive and noncompetitive services shall not provide (1) electronically published news, feature, or entertainment material of the type generally published in newspapers, or (2) electronic advertising services, except through a fully separated subsidiary; provided, however, that a telecommunications carrier shall be allowed to resell, without editing the content, news, feature, or entertainment material of the type generally published in newspapers that it purchases from an unaffiliated entity or from a separate subsidiary to the extent the separate subsidiary makes that material available to all other persons under the same rates, terms, and conditions. Nothing in this Section shall prohibit a telecommunications carrier from electronic advertising of its own regulated services or from providing tariffed telecommunications services to a separate subsidiary or an unaffiliated entity that provides electronically published news, feature, or entertainment material or electronic advertising services.
