:Long press statement [https://www.nbcuniversal.com/article/comcast-announces-intention-create-leading-independent-media-business-through-spin-select-cable here]. Appears that the tentative company will be SpinCo; interesting choice of name. 2601AC47 (talk|contribs) Isn't a IP anon 13:23, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
::Only a tentative name for now, spin-offs in the business industry are named SpinCo in corporate press to start out with. Nate • (chatter) 16:01, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
:::Right... but should we get a new company article going? 2601AC47 (talk|contribs) Isn't a IP anon 16:02, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
::::Not right now...wait for much more to come, right now this is a section without true specifics (if we start an article on this now, the 'Universal Kids being sold to Scripps to become Qusproutbo' made-up crap IPs will give us headaches). Nate • (chatter) 17:41, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
:::Any word on what becomes of NBCUniversal International Networks? There are some channels branded Syfy within the unit... BiggieSMLZ (talk) 22:08, 27 November 2024 (UTC)
