Bank Foreclosure Not a Problem for NBC, Everything's Chill
Sit back and enjoy the depression with the new season of the office


Despite the Lehman bankruptcy and the end of modern world, wrinkly-necked Jeff Zucker is "extremely comfortable" with the future of NBC:

"The deals that don't get done probably shouldn't get done, you know?" he said. "Maybe there's some rationality that's now in the marketplace that's driven by external circumstances, but that's not necessarily a bad thing."

Yeah guys, this little "dissolution of the free market" thing is no big deal. Remember NBC's Olympic coverage? How about last week's SNL premiere? Nah man, NBC is doing fine. No chance of a deep plunge for the network, or even if there is, you shouldn't worry about it.

Especially don't worry about Keith Olbermann or Ben Silverman or any of those guys that keep NBC/MSNBC on the brink of an amber alert every week. Just keep buying those GE stocks and hope for some sort of Xtreme media merger in the meantime.

At any rate Jeff Zucker will be just fine, so don't worry about him.
