CBS to buy NBC?

At first I took this to be an April Fools joke. But apparently it is turning out to be true. What's going to happen to all of the CBS stations when NBCBS takes over in the fall? Will WOAI-4 in San Antonio become the main NBCBS station thus closing KENS-5 for good? More importantly,will shows like The Price Is Right,Young And The Restless,and others from CBS be staying?

Never claimed to invest much effort, but everybody needs to get their hat in the ring. :)

Didn't even need to read it to know it was an April Fool's Day joke.

Federal antitrust regulations prohibit one of the major networks from buying another.

Cute, though.<P ID="signature">______________

I think you've been taken! Go to the B&C website and the article is nowhere to be found.

I think the funniest part of the joke is how Pax/i expressed interest in picking up the CSI series. LOL! That would be the end of those ratings!

It is not an official B&C article. Right click on the site, select "Properites", and you will see that the address is:

http://www.cbaccess.com/fools/CW To Headquarter in Burbank - 3-31-2006 61300 PM - Broadcasting & Cable - CA6321264.htm

Someone just saved and article to their website, changed it, and uploaded the file to their website.

Great joke thought. Hope B&C doesn't sue.

The best AFD jokes are the ones that momentarily cause a "ohmigod" ...<P ID="signature">______________
