Newspaper Group Appeals Phone Decision: The American Newspaper Publishers Assn. appealed a federal judge’s decision that would let regional telephone companies provide stock market quotes and other information services. U.S. District Judge Harold Greene ruled last month that restrictions against such services should be lifted, but he delayed the effect of his order pending appeals. Tuesday’s appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals in Washington was the first filed. Consumer groups and long-distance carriers such as MCI Telecommunications Corp. also oppose letting the Baby Bells into the market.
