CHICAGO -- General Electric's Bob Wright, who heads NBC Universal, took the dais at the NXTComm show here today before CNBC's Maria Bartiromo and played pretend journalist for a moment.
"I have some news," Wright said, bragging that he was scooping Bartiromo. "AT&T and Verizon are going to merge. The new company will be called AT&V."
That got a big laugh from the crowd of more than 2,000, as the CEOs of AT&T and Verizon Communications had just completed their remarks on the digital future. -- Gene J. Koprowski, for Technology Daily
