The Eye Network is expected to become a 50-50 shareholder on the TV Guide cable channel.

Wouldn't that be a conflict of interest? Perhaps not legally, but on some level, it's not right for one network to own a service that's supposed to cover all networks and channels.

But then again, NBC owns Comcast, so whadda I know?

TVGuide doesn't really cover all networks anymore. They air syndicated programming just like everyone else.
