"Comcast is expected to insist its market does not overlap with Time Warner Cable and that the deal would not reduce competition for consumers."
Time Warner customers, prepare yourselves for a truly hideous experience.
I’d keep the toll-free numbers of the dish companies handy.
How is this not a monopoly?
So now instead of two companies with horrid customer support and unfair pricing, now folks have one to choose from. /sarcasm
WoW - a bigger company to give us 500 channels we don’t want to watch...
Team Obama WILL APPROVE THIS BIG BUSINESS MERGER, as it CRUSHES competition AND because Comcast is in the pocket of the regime.
Thinking it maybe is time to buy a converter box.
Will they finally offer The Blaze?
This looks like Anti-Trust division should not allow this merger. But Comcast is very friendly with the Obungu Administration so most likely nothing will happen
Didn’t see that coming. (Not.)
“Comcast To Buy Time Warner Cable For $45bn”
That’s interesting. The total outlays of the federal government in 1951... 45 billion [$45,514,000,000]
The FTC failed us on the oil mergers in the 90s and is failing us on this bigtime if they let it go.
If there’s one thing the government should be involved in it’s anti-trust.
Can’t imagine the feds approving this except that both sides have commie friends of Obama who could grease the skids with sizable campaign donations.
We still have anti-trust laws, don’t we?
I think I read the same thing in a Standard oil release many years ago.
Before long, there will be ONE BIG: electric company, water company, gas company, healthcare company, grocery company, phone company, cell phone company, school control company, yada yada yada. The big boys are all coming together. Run off all competition. Make it just one big boy and no one else. Then, you control the PRICE. Thus, either come to me for what you want in TV or don’t get TV. Your choice. Do with. OR do without. See you DO have a choice. Do with. Or do without. Two choices. See, socialism does work. It does give you choices. Two of them in fact. Ain’t socialism and One World Government grand?!?!?!?!
