Notes<br />
In November 2006, Comcast bought Walt Disney Co.’s 39.5% stake<br />
in E! Entertainment for $1.23 billion. That gave Comcast 100%<br />
ownership of E!.<br />
Comcast in September 2006 rebranded OLN, a cable sports channel,<br />
as Versus. OLN in 2006 had measured spending of $9.6 million;<br />
Versus had spending of $3.8 million.<br />
Comcast Corp. and Time Warner’s Time Warner Cable in July<br />
2006 bought the assets of bankrupt Adelphia Communications<br />
Corp. Late that month, Comcast and Time Warner swapped<br />
some cable systems, most acquired from Adelphia, to streamline<br />
their geographic clusters of subscribers.<br />
