"We put none of those types of traditional synergies into our numbers to make this a good transaction. However, I do think it's a great business that we're buying, and I do think there are many strategic things we can do together, and we'll just have to prove that as we go."1

- Brian Roberts, Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Comcast Corporation, in December 2009.

"Consumers of all of our products - on screens large and small - will have the benefit of enhanced content and experiences, delivered to them in new and better ways as a result of this transaction."2

- Jeff Zucker, President and CEO, NBC Universal, in December 2009.

"This merger's potential to foreclose competition and stifle innovation is significant and real."3

- Mark Cooper, Director of Research, Consumer Federation of America4, in December 2009.
