Merger Mania: NBC and Universal Get It On
NBC and Universal officially merged on Wednesday, creating the world's fifth-largest media concern, according to THR. Check out this steamy, conglomerate ugly-bumpin' action: "The merged entity will be able to leverage its scale by, for example, more aggressively using and cross-promoting content or negotiating better carriage deals with cable and satellite distributors." Hott! Come on, NBC Universal, get a room or we might have to turn a hose on you!
We can't wait for the cross-promotional madness sure to follow, like the Friends 3-D ride at Universal Studios. You'll sit on a replica of the Central Perk couch and watch as the cast's movie careers stall, seemingly just inches from your face!
