"Overlooking the regrettable hilarity of this designation for a brief moment, let’s point out that a peacock is, of course, the official corporate logo of NBC and has been for decades," says Catie Keck. "But imagine for a moment what it must have been like being in the room when this decision was made. In an increasingly competitive streaming space, NBC’s chosen fighter is Peacock. A self-own if ever I’ve seen one! Whomst is responsible for this?! Listen, maybe after launch, we’ll all become accustomed to referring to Peacock without an accompanying snicker. Maybe! But also, maybe NBC should rethink this."
