I heard this from a customer yesterday. Has anyone else heard this. So far CBG hasn't done much of any thing noteworthy. I wonder if this is to bolster it and actually have it do something or to snuff it out for good.

CBG members are going to vote on this at the membership meeting at Showeast.

They say it will lower administrative costs and that non NATO members will still be allowed in the group.

This is an interesting problem from the stand point of anti-trust. Louis

Louis, I'd wager nothing will happen unless someone raises a big stink. After all, Sumner Redstone has had a studio AND his theatres for these many years without nary a peep from the Justice Department.
