He aha i pai ake ai te whakakotahitanga ki UPT? I runga i te pātai o mua, tuhia he horopaki kei roto te whakautu. Ka taea te 1 - 20 rerenga kōrero. Te horopaki:
Ko Leonard Goldenson, te perehitini o UPT (i whai ki te wehewehe i a ia ano i taua wa), i whakatata atu ki a Noble i te tau 1951 mo te tono kia hokona e UPT a ABC. I whiwhi a Noble i etahi atu tono, tae atu ki tetahi mai i te kaiwhakaara CBS a William S. Paley; heoi, ko te whakakotahitanga me CBS ka akiaki i taua whatunga ki te hoko i ona teihana o New York City me Los Angeles i te iti rawa. I tae atu a Goldenson me Noble ki tetahi whakaaetanga whakamātautau i te mutunga o te puna o te tau 1951 ka riro i a UPT a ABC ka huri hei kamupene o te kamupene ka pupuri i te mana motuhake i roto i tana whakahaere. I te 6 o Pipiri 1951, i whakaaetia te whakaaetanga ātaahua e te poari kaiwhakahaere o UPT. Heoi anō, i whakaaetia te whakawhitinga e te FCC nā te aroaro o ngā whatunga pouaka whakaata me te wehenga tata i waenganui i Paramount me UPT. I te mea he kaipupuri hea a Paramount Pictures i roto i te Whatunga Whakaata DuMont, i whakahaerehia e te FCC he raupapa whakarongo ki te whakarite mehemea i wehe ke a Paramount i nga United Paramount Theatres, me te mea kei te takahi i nga ture antitrust.
