NBC said it will pull the online portal back into its operations and shut down NBCi's operations in San Francisco. The broadcasting company is currently a minority shareholder in NBCi, with approximately 38.6 percent of the company's outstanding shares.

"The company of 339 people will not exist as it is today," said NBC spokeswoman Rebecca Tompkins, adding that some employees will remain. "We will retain parts of what NBCi is right now, but I don't know if we will retain the NBCi name."
