It’s filing a civil suit against Comcast’s Brian Roberts, but with the proposed settlement agreement that includes the fine. Officials went after him not because the magnitude of the violation is so big — but because this is the third time Roberts was found to have bought stock prior to Comcast’s acquisition of NBCUniversal without properly reporting it to government officials.
