It's time we stand up to media monopolies.\"<\/p>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\nPublic Interest Not Served by Comcast’s Purchase of Remainder of NBCUniversal - Common Cause<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/es\/press-releases\/public-interest-not-served-by-comcasts-purchase-of-remainder-of-nbcuniversal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"es_MX\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Public Interest Not Served by Comcast’s Purchase of Remainder of NBCUniversal\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/es\/prensa\/public-interest-not-served-by-comcasts-purchase-of-remainder-of-nbcuniversal\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Common Cause\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/CommonCause\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/CC-Share-Graphic-Main9.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"630\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@CommonCause\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/press-releases\/public-interest-not-served-by-comcasts-purchase-of-remainder-of-nbcuniversal\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.commoncause.org\/press-releases\/public-interest-not-served-by-comcasts-purchase-of-remainder-of-nbcuniversal\/\",\"name\":\"Public Interest Not Served by Comcast’s Purchase of Remainder of NBCUniversal -
