Netflix buying Warner Bros or maybe Paramount is buying Warner Bros? Update: Netflix drops out

[StoneColdHeel]

I feel like this will go to court for some reason and Paramount will lose because anything Trump is for almost always loses in court.

Yeah, Netflix would be a lot better for DC and the HBO shows. A lot more people have Netflix than Paramount+. I don't see enough people adding Paramount+ because of the deal for them to make their money back from buying WB Discovery. You know Paramount is going to raise the subscription price, too.

Maybe, but that is not what I am talking about.

Why Do Conservatives Think Paramount Is The Conservative White Knight?

Paramount's alleged conservativism reads as a lot of wishful thinking.

Welp, John Oliver on HBOmax will need to find a new home

I hope HBO is kept separate, but maybe this will get me a season I’ve been hoping for: The White Lotus - Palm Beach, FL

Ironic that it's being reported on CNN, as CNN is a Warner property and one that you know Trumpers are salivating to get their hands on. The moment that CNN comes under Ellison's control it will be gutted the same way CBS News was, and it will also move sharply to the right, just like CBS News. We're about to be living in a media universe where only MSNBC among the major players has not become a MAGA Fox lite news network.

Netflix dropped out after saying the Paramount bid was superior and blah blah. Eff the Ellisons.

NPR was reporting that the new Paramount bid was backed (sweetened) by Middle East money-don’t remember which country.

I’m sure. I guess the only hope is that in a couple years time, when the Trump presidency has become too toxic to be associated with, this all comes crashing down.
