If you follow corporate mergers and media entities you may be aware of the pending merger between XM Satellite Radio and Sirius. In our home this merger means quite a bit- and we are following it closely. Last week the Department of Justice (DOJ) said the merger between the two satellite giants was legal. Stocks for both companies jumped and chatter about when the FCC would approve the next step of the merger was rampant.
In our household it also came with a surprise promotion. Brent was moved to the position of Senior Producer for Major League Baseball (MLB) on XM just minutes after the DOJ announcement. Since he started at XM, Brent has been asked to travel to every major event covered by the channel and has met and becomes friends with fascinating and sincere industry people including baseball players, coaches, writers, and celebrities. He's been in the dugout for the All Star games, attended the induction of all the best players into the Baseball Hall of Fame and even celebrated in the locker rooms with the world series champions each year. I'm so happy he has a job he enjoys so thoroughly. I'm really proud of you sweetheart, Congratulations on your new position!
