One of the big news stories here in Nashville is the announcement that HarperCollins (a News Corp company) is buying Thomas Nelson.
Thomas Nelson employees about 600 people here.

So, now they're going to use vanity publishing as a means of income too?
Should this be in BR&BC?

Well HC is already in bed with CreateSpace throught their Autonomy site. Maybe they want to cut CS out...
Already are, with DellArte Press
Yes, unless the OP is looking for general discussion re: publishers merging.
Since this isn't a promotional announcement, moving to Roundtable from AE&SP.

Just to fine-tune the point a bit... it's the West Bow imprint of Thomas Nelson that's a vanity outfit (via AuthorSolutions).
It'll be interesting to see what becomes of that, but I suspect HC bought TN because it's one of the largest Christian publishers. It's a nice niche to graft onto HC.

I know, right? I can barely remember, either. Publishers Marketplace has an extensive list, but you need a membership. Wikipedia's entry is here.
