Bonnie Hammer is taking over all cable properties at NBCUniversal, making her responsible for about half of the company's operating cash flow, according to an internal memo sent to staff by Steve Burke earlier today. Hammer has led USA to the top of the ratings heap on cable television; she's also helped realize growth at Syfy and E!.

Lauren Zalaznick will relinquish control of Bravo, Oxygen, Style and Sprout to Hammer; Joe Uva will take over the Hispanic properties including Telemundo.
