JEFF GASPIN EXPANDS DUTIES WITH PROMOTION TO CHAIRMAN, NBC UNIVERSAL TELEVISION ENTERTAINMENT

UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. -- July 27, 2009 -- Jeff Gaspin has been named Chairman, NBC Universal Television Entertainment, effective immediately. This move expands his role to now include oversight of NBC Entertainment and Universal Media Studios, in addition to all of his current duties. This new structure will consolidate all of the company's television entertainment assets, both broadcast and cable, English and Spanish, under one roof and will better allow the company to leverage its content across all of those properties.

Gaspin already has management responsibility for the company's portfolio of entertainment cable networks, including USA, SyFy, Bravo, Oxygen, Universal HD, Sleuth, and Chiller, as well as its interests in the A&E and History networks. In addition, Gaspin oversees the company's television distribution, including linear, digital and wireless, off-net syndication and first-run efforts, as well as the Telemundo broadcast network and its owned stations.

Ben Silverman, who has been Co-Chairman, NBC Entertainment and Universal Media Studios, has announced that he is returning to his entrepreneurial roots to form a new venture. He will remain in his current role for several weeks to assist in the launch of NBC's fall schedule. Marc Graboff, who has also been Co-Chairman, will continue as Chairman, NBC Entertainment and Universal Media Studios, reporting to Gaspin.

These announcements were made today by Jeff Zucker, President and CEO, NBC Universal, to whom Gaspin reports.

WHY HAS CH 52 LOS ANGELES TELEMUNDO DROPPED ALL

On December 4, 2008, The Los Angeles Times reported that Vivendi plans to keep its 20% stake in NBC Universal:

"French media conglomerate Vivendi plans to keep its 20% stake in NBC Universal -- at least for another year.

Vivendi's decision Wednesday not to exercise an option to sell its minority interest eases a potential headache for General Electric Co., which owns 80% of the television network, movie studio and theme park business. GE has the right to buy Vivendi's stake before it is offered to the public.

For GE, the timing would not have been ideal. The Fairfield, Conn.-based industrial giant has stumbled this year, squeezed by the mortgage meltdown, tight credit markets and a weakening economy. Nearly 40% of GE's revenue comes from its financial services division."

In September 2008, NBC Universal, along with the Blackstone Group and Bain Capital, purchased the Weather Channel from Landmark Communications, Inc. for 3.5 billion dollars.

Tell Immelt that due to the countless number of out of control news reporting by his company that contain so many lies and irresponsibility by his news staffs that I will boycott GE products whenever possible. I know that just being one person doing this will have little impact on his bottom line but I plan to enlist as many friends, co-workers and family members that I can. Immelt may not realize this but there is a quiet ground swell starting in America to do what I am doing and hopefully it will grow until he makes his news reporting unbiased and honest. If you have a conscience you out to be ashamed Mr. Immelt of what you are allowing to be broadcast over the airways!

The charges against President Bush are aiding & abetting a criminal from justice & covering corruption in the U.S. Supreme Court who are guilty of dereliction of duty & corruption where the motive is to cover for an official who has committed a crime Pursuant to Title 18, section 243 & deny reparations of 10 million dollars for the illegal restraint.
So far I've gotten only media bias & you have a responsibility to inform the public of corruption where the U. S. Supreme Court denies the right to freedom, justice, equality, & the pursuit of happiness. If I'm not contacted by 2-12-2008 for a press conference I'll file suit against you.

All around the United States of America, parents are loosing their very own children by hearsay, lies, false documentation of CPS workers, and lack of judges from honoring their own oath. The business of removing children with intent to sell the children has become a big human trafficking government mofia, which is kept silent, as both children and parents are violated and victimized of the Human, Civil, and Constitutional Rights, our soldiers have and are laying down their lives for. This is a hush hush government reality. Parents have no where to go for help.

I am a woman that has witnessed how our government has taken away all rights for democracy, liberty, and justice, from a woman who fled with her infant from abuse, only for the infant to be given to the abuser, with great intent, by Child Protection Services. Governor of Indiana, Mitch Daniels, who campaigned to have an open door policy regarding the crimes and negligence of Child Protection Services, now called Dept of Children, failed to do so, with purpose, as this governmental agency is a large money making business of human trafficking and literally defaming parents without regards for the Constitutional, Civil, or Human Rights. Lawmakers have no clue on the reality of what CPS is doing. What they say and what they really do, is a different as night is to day.

Be cautious of what the government in regards to the agency that is to 'protect', says and does, as they failed to honor all laws and rights citizens have, including the rights and wel-fare of children. Political officials make promises, but once elected, their campaign promises of the election is forgotten. I clearly remember the promise of Mitch Daniels, "I will have an open door policy regarding Child Protection Services". That is a laugh. When an agency of the government is given full reign without over sight, human trafficking, child laundrying business, and money laudrying, will become the only factor of the focus, not to protect. Mitch Daniels has failed to respond to many Indiana Citizens with his 'open door'. We, the citizens of Indiana and the United States know the truth of corruption, violation of Civil, Constitutional, and Human Rights, as we have be terrorized and victimized by the largest terrorist group in the world, The U.S. Child Protection Services, government agency.

How can democracy be upheld in the United States of America, when complaints against judges are reviewed by their own friend peers, Child Protection Services, investigated by their own department agency, or the Attorney General for the state to be the legal counsel for all government agencies, to deliberately ignore the crimes the state workers commit against citizens?

Who is legal counsel for the citizens?

We pay for the government to function, and we have to pay again with a private attorney to have our rights up-held!! In Indiana, the political figures function on their own agenda, not the needs of the citizens. Just like the attorney for Child Protection Services, as he threatens all who attempt to recite the laws, statutes, Civil, Constitutional, and Human Rights. When citizens inquire for information regarding the use of funds and the amount of federal re-inbursement given to the government agency, CPS, they refuse to honor the Freedom of Information Act and Open Access Indiana. When will the lives of children and families be important?

I am contacting you because it is not right that you host a spanish channel on american television without even offering so much as english subtitles. If I need the news I can change the channel but you offer shows like 12 Corazones, which has contestents from america, and are more interesting then most english shows and people don't know what's going on. I'm not asking you to put it in english but english subtitles would be nice.
