I’m going to say three words to you and I want you to think hard before responding: O’Reilly. Olbermann. Co-anchors.
No, I kid. Given the chairman’s opinion of Kayo, the only thing he’d be anchoring is the 2 a.m. edition of SportsCenter if ESPN took him back. Which, let’s face it, they wouldn’t.
Cable company Comcast Corp (CMCSA.O) has been widely reported to be in talks with NBC Universal parent General Electric Co (GE.N) to buy a controlling stake in the broadcast, cable and movie company… News Corp, which owns the Fox cable network and local TV stations, had been seen as a less likely bidder, analysts have said, because taking a stake in NBC might raise antitrust concerns with the U.S. government.Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp (NWSA.O) and John Malone’s Liberty Media Corp (LINTA.O) are interested in NBC Universal, according to a report by CNBC, citing sources.
Yeah, “might.” What are the odds that Eric Holder “might” want to prevent the administration’s cable-news house organ from being acquired by a guy whose most famous holding is the subject of now-daily White House pants-wettings?

“famous holding is the subject of now-daily White House pants-wettings?”
Hysterical! LoL
I hope he buys that pile o’ crap. It would be hilarious!
Do you think the wh can take the slams against them if holder were to fight it?
bump to the top
Holder needs to concentrate on the Black Panthers and ACORN.
Not slamming anybody, but why would he want to buy it, just to turn it into a quasi-FNC clone?
Rupert ain’t no dummy, he’d be playing both sides.
It’s a bad idea. We need to spread the ownership around not consolidate it.
First thing I would so is send an email to the General Mailbox for MSNBC television.
“Your Fired”.
It’s getting crowded at Fox.
That would be nice...
It seems like the same owner already owns cnn, nbc, abc and cbs. I agree with the idea of not having clones..we already have it!
Could be why nobamas herd is flailing away at FNC.
Talk about “worst case scenario” for the chavez wannabe, what if NBC turned against the kenyan’s BS tripe too????
With today’s insurance industry’s NobamaCare audit PR fiasco for demslibs, Acorn PR fiasco for nobama and all the nobama public ridicule laterly, I think his efforts are about to lose on his nobamacare and overall is falling down fast.
I didn’t know it was for sale.
Comcast was considering buying NBC as well. I think that move would influence me to switch to Dish Network and DSL. I love the ultra-fast internet connection, but I will not do business with commies.
Fox Two! Fox Two!
The wh is scared of every thing right now, and their attacks on fox is proof. I think the theory is right, they are acting like nixon..
I’m leaving comcast on the 21st for att u-verse. Tv, internet, phone with dvr for cheaper.
I no longer have a home phone - I bought an X-Link bluetooth box that allows me to run my house phones through my cell phone. That's $40 a month I don't have to spend!
How come no-body ever mentions “anti-trust” in relation to Viacom? Time-Warner? etc etc
