Comcast’s Peacock Sparks Talk of Mega Merger

The Information: NBCUniversal has pitched ViacomCBS, among other companies, about offering their streaming services in a bundle with Peacock at a discounted rate, either in the US or abroad. These efforts raise the prospect that NBCU could pursue a merger with another firm, such as WarnerMedia, at some point. Only 11.3 million households regularly watch NBCU’s Peacock service, far fewer than use competing services.
