1 - Wow what a weird choice of words. :lol:
2 - Seriously? A bit old for that, aren't I?
3 - Yes, there is currently no publically official information available yet, except for a post on Eastern US Wx forums. I just thought it would be of best interest that you guys might like to know something big before it was officially announced to the public.

The post on EasternUSwx was jumping the gun. nothing is official. I saw that post, and I wouldn't trust it as far as I could throw it.

You are a bit old for that, but that's yet to stop you.  ;)

If you want to help us, there are a couple of things you can do. First, quit rubbing in our faces that you have insider info about this (which you don't-EasternusWX is not insider info). Wait until you have some substantiative info, then tell us. don't you think I watch the press releases and news reports for this stuff?

No no, that's not where I got the info from. I'm just saying, there is other sources out there, such as that forum.

Well if you don't like me saying "Insider info", how would you like me to phrase it? My friend John Doe who lives at [address] in Atlanta, who's uncle works for NBC? Seriously, grow up.

I don't want to know about it at all. I thought I made that abundantly clear. Not until you have an article I can see form a reliable news source. When I get a report from one of the news agencies, then I know its true.

I'm so pissed off, I stayed up all night to record 2 songs in the overnight playlist, only to find out Forecast Crap is airing at 1-2am EST which means no 2 minutes locals until 2:08am :rolleyes:
Stay up late tomorrow night then, there will be regular programming all night. :yes:
Arrgh. I'll be asleep tomorrow. My parents aren't home which is why i'm staying up...

Nor can they describe you-and trust me, I've tried all of them.

There's no more to say about this at current, so I'm going to bed.

Well Gil, I've checked all my daily news reports this morning, and still no mention of an NBC buyout of TWC. It looks like the only person who gets to say I told you so today is me.

The only report I saw today, which was dated June 13th (Friday), is this one: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/business/news/e3i5597024fecf11e33ef8c0691685224bc

The article specifically states that "this doesn't mean NBC Uni has automatically won the bidding".

So there :P

Gil, the media doesn't take off on weekends. This is a major story. The media would be allover it like flys on dung.
I do! :P

Not to mention, that on those forums, the first post mentioning the sell, was posted on "May 31 2008, at 09:11 AM"... I've scanned through Newsblues my self and have found nothing about this.
