Comcast/NBCU Expected To Gain Approval This Week - 2011-01-17 16:41:11 | Multichannel News

"Look for the Federal Communications Commission to get the Comcast/NBCU deal done by week's end.
That is according to several FCC staffers, one of whom also confirmed reports that Comcast chairman Brian Roberts paid a visit to the agency last week.

It was a busy week as public-interest groups and other deal critics pressed Democratic Commissioners Michael Copps and Mignon Clyburn for help with various conditions. The commissioners have been vetting the chairman's draft approval, which was circulated just before Christmas."
