I never understood this: Comcast does not carry NBC's Universal Sports and they are supposed to be the same company essentially. The greedy bastards at NBC puled their programming from basic cable and OTA, so they can charge more and Comcast told them to go F themselves.

Comcast only has a minority share in Universal Sports. InterMedia Partners still has the controlling share. Comcast only lends the Universal name for branding purposes. Since InterMedia ultimately control the company, they control negotiations with the cable companies.
