So there is a rumor circulating amongst the Hollywood press and the business media that Comcast wants to buy the new Warner Bros. Discovery and merge it with NBCU.

Apparently that cannot be done until 2024 because the recent merger that created WBD has to survive long enough for some legal reasons I don’t understand.

Regardless of all of that, such a merger would put a great amount of television and cinema under one corporate owner.

It’s like we are trying really hard to reach that glibertarian dystopia where a handful of corporations own everything.
