Merger bottom lne. If no assets drained out of the companies, it really doesn't matter to new shareholders whether GSTR negotiated a good deal or a bad deal. The deal will affect the % of the merged company owned by GSTR shareholders vs TV Guide shareholders.

But, presumably the market will now set the relative market value of the two stocks adding to TV and subtracting from GSTR if it sees fit.
New shareholders could care less because they are buying the
merged operation which has both an IP lock and TV Guide's successful ventures. So, if GSTR falls to 50 so what. Just buy some of both of them for now in case the merger dies in birth and be happy that as a new shareholder you will win no matter what.
