(Reuters) – Walmart (NYSE:WMT) Inc has held talks with media companies about including streaming entertainment in its membership service, the New York Times reported on Tuesday, citing people with knowledge of the conversations.

Executives from Paramount, Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) Co and Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:CMCSA), which operate several major streaming services, have in recent weeks spoken with the U.S. retail giant, according to the report.
