==Merger==
Great article. However, is this actually a merger. It remains a joint venture with General Electric as the junior partner. Also, Comcast maintains the venture under a newly formed holdings company according to 10k SEC fillings, thus it is inherently double shielded from main Comcast operations. Just to be clear however, I'm not sure that I am right about the terminology. Just throwing it out there for now. Unless anyone can confirm my claim, just leave it alone.

Improving this article

Great work on this article thus far. The biggest thing to fix is the proper use of citations. Where is the online mentor?Jaobar (talk) 21:58, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The online mentor has been in contact with all three students, but again, with only one student making edits to the page, the mentor is probably working on other articles until there is action on the page. - NeutralhomerTalkCoor. Online Amb'dor23:07, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I would like the mentor to help the students fix the citations please. Jaobar (talk) 21:01, 3 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I have posted to PrincessofLlyr's talk page. If you need immediate assistance, please let me know. - NeutralhomerTalk03:21, 4 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Merger

Great article. However, is this actually a merger. It remains a joint venture with General Electric as the junior partner. Also, Comcast maintains the venture under a newly formed holdings company according to 10k SEC fillings, thus it is inherently double shielded from main Comcast operations. Just to be clear however, I'm not sure that I am right about the terminology. Just throwing it out there for now. Unless anyone can confirm my claim, just leave it alone.
