Comcast-NBC Takeover Might Come With Net Neutrality Condition

Obviously, that raises some sticky questions for regulators, mixing up a cable/internet provider with a producer of content, particularly in this age of internet video. So the FCC is considering a bevy of conditions to approve the deal – like “program access” rules to keep Comcast from withholding NBC programming from competitors or net neutrality conditions. [NYT]
