| The Comcast/NBC-Universal Merger and the Future of the Internet. Received with both apprehension and excitement, the Comcast/NBC-Universal Merger combines the two worlds of content creation and distribution infrastructure at a scale without precedent, raising issues of copyright protection, consumer choice and access, vertical concentration, anti-trust, and impact on competing media. Our panel will opine on the merger and related issues such as how content can be protected in a concentrated media environment, competition and licensing concerns, internet neutrality and regulation. Speakers: Lynn Weisman, Executive Director of Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, Carole E. Handler, Partner of Wildman Harold and Susannah Jeffers of (moderator) Jeffers Consulting.
