arstechnica.com — The Stop Big Media crowd is promising all-out combat against a proposed Comcast takeover of NBC Universal. The deal will have to pass muster with the FCC's always controversial media ownership rules, which are again in flux.

It pains me to support the FCC, but it pains me more to send Comcast money every month.

I believe there is an Obama CZAR for the FCC. Comcast announced this morning they support Obama care. The other part of the equation is GE owns NBC. Therefore, this is a done deal! May I ask.... how is the change and hope thing working for you?
