I think you misspoke. Comcast isn't dropping the channels they own under the NBC umbrella. They are spinning these off to another company.
The plan to spin off some NBCUniversal channels includes MSNBC, CNBC, USA, Oxygen, E!, Syfy, and the Golf Channel, while NBC, Bravo, and the streaming service Peacock would remain under NBCUniversal, a source close to the plans told Business Insider.
