Will NBC and Fox launch Hulu next week?

There's a rumor going around that NBC and FOX are preparing to launch a private beta of their new online video site on Monday. Or maybe Wednesday.

Hulu will be a central location for finding clips, promotional content, and full-length streaming episodes of NBC and News Corp programs. The timing makes sense, seeing as NBC pulled all of its content from YouTube this weekend.

Once the site launches, you'll be able to find out what people do on Lazy Sundays and what they put in boxes again. Hulu will be an ad-supported streaming video site. You can still download episodes of NBC and News Corp shows from sites including Amazon and iTunes.
