How can I combine two or more querysets in a Django view?

I am trying to build the search for a Django site I am building, and in that search, I am searching in three different models. And to get pagination on the search result list, I would like to use a generic object_list view to display the results. But to do that, I have to merge three querysets into one.

How can I do that? I've tried this:

result_list = []page_list = Page.objects.filter(    Q(title__icontains=cleaned_search_term) |    Q(body__icontains=cleaned_search_term))article_list = Article.objects.filter(    Q(title__icontains=cleaned_search_term) |    Q(body__icontains=cleaned_search_term) |    Q(tags__icontains=cleaned_search_term))post_list = Post.objects.filter(    Q(title__icontains=cleaned_search_term) |    Q(body__icontains=cleaned_search_term) |    Q(tags__icontains=cleaned_search_term))for x in page_list:    result_list.append(x)for x in article_list:    result_list.append(x)for x in post_list:    result_list.append(x)return object_list(    request,    queryset=result_list,    template_object_name='result',    paginate_by=10,    extra_context={'search_term': search_term},    template_name="search/result_list.html")

But this doesn't work. I get an error when I try to use that list in the generic view. The list is missing the clone attribute.

How can I merge the three lists, page_list, article_list and post_list?
