I think this is great news......I hope anyway. FCC will approve. I just read they've never overturned a merger that the DOJ has approved.

I'm curious as to how quickly we'll see some programming changes. I also wonder what's going to happen to shows like Opie & Anthony, but I guess we'll find out in due time.

I also read that as part of the agreement they are required to give back some of the bandwidth to Georgetown Partners? I don't even know who that is or what they do, so I'm going to have to do a Google search.

I think this will be good news for consumers. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
