Puck’s Dylan Byers believes California AG Rob Bonta has a weak case for blocking the $111 billion Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger. Byers says the suit relies on an “archaic” definition of the media market focused on theatrical and cable distribution, rather than the digital platforms actually dominating attention: “David...

Paramount is engaged in a battle with Netflix to buy Warner Bros. Discovery. Paramount’s most recent bid was rejected in part over financing. On Monday, Larry Ellison, the father of Paramount CEO David Ellison, personally guaranteed $40 billion in an effort to revive that bid. But Netflix’s proposed $83 billion offer is still considered the favorite for now. Talk of this deal has triggered widespread fears in Hollywood about what it could mean for the creative industry. Our senior arts correspondent Jeffrey Brown gets some perspective from one of the leading unions.

Javier Bardem reacts to the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger freeze, saying that consolidating Hollywood to "two or three big studios" could worsen job losses in Los Angeles and New York. "I may be wrong, I may be right, but the only thing I want to support is the jobs — and the quality of the jobs." Bardem, along with over 1,400 other Hollywood creatives, signed an open letter opposing the $110 billion merger of Paramount Skydance with Warner Bros. Discovery.

This could be one of the biggest wins in recent history. The New York Post says disgraced Susan Rice "cost Netflix on home stretch of Warner Bros. Discovery deal." Netflix lost a deal that would have given the Obama's unchecked control over what our children watch. Trump donor and Paramount owner Larry Ellison swept in and took over Warner Bros. Never forget: Susan Rice demanded all Trump supporters be thrown in "reeducation camps." Psycho.

This weekend several parties are gearing up to bid on Warner Brothers Discovery in a heated auction. This comes a full quarter century since I advised Aol in their $183 billion merger with Time Warner in the largest deal in history in 2000, a deal way ahead of its time and massively financially lopsided (in my client’s favor). Who will win the bidding for Warner Bros. – Comcast, Netflix, Skydance Paramount or a dark horse candidate? My bet is on Paramount because Comcast’s Brian Roberts is economically rational and Netflix doesn’t need it. Plus, Skydance’s David Ellison has both his dad’s cash and connections (Saudi money?) and the right political connections (Trump) to get the deal greenlit. Whoever wins the auction, one thing’s certain: the real winner is David Zaslav who bet big on a high-risk leveraged play when he convinced AT&T to merge Warner Bros. with Discovery in deal at one point had $48 billion of debt – a deal that panned out after all at a time when legacy media is in decline. Very Disco!

California Attorney General Rob Bonta tells Scott MacFarlane the proposed merger between Paramount Global and Warner Bros. is under active investigation—and “not a done deal.” Bonta says there are “red flags everywhere,” including concerns about higher prices for consumers, lower wages for workers, and reduced competition across streaming and theatrical markets. The state has not yet decided whether to sue—but says it’s still on the table.

Jim Acosta: Here is the breaking news. The news is broken. We may not be able to put the pieces back together again if the Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger goes through and puts my former employer, CNN, under the control of the Ellison family. Trump has cracked the code on how to hurt the press in America. The news does not belong to the oligarchs. It belongs to us.

Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery reportedly signed an agreement Friday on a $110 billion deal, a merger that will make Paramount one of the largest media empires in the world. It happened after a dramatic turn of events and after Netflix walked away from its proposal to buy out Warner Bros. Paramount could now control two key movie studios, multiple streaming platforms, major intellectual property brands, along with television and cable channels, and two of the biggest news operations on television, CBS and CNN. But this isn't a done deal yet, as it is now under investigation and awaiting regulatory approval. Geoff Bennett sat down with Roben Farzad, host of public radio's "Full Disclosure," for more.

You're being targeted by the state's attorney general, who's also leading a coalition of other Democrat attorneys general, primarily what seems like for political purposes…. There is a long list of businesses that have left California because it is terrible for business, taxes, and regulation, and the list goes on.”

The left wing elite are in full panic mode now that Paramount is buying Warner Bros Discover, and with that merger Trump ally Larry Ellison (and his son David) will control the combined media giant. Under the new ownership of Paramount, CBS News and CNN won't be fully controlled by the radical left. The far left wing "reporters" are CNN are in a full blown panic that they will no longer be able to promote their far left agenda. The Democrats were counting on their Obama allies at Netflix to purchase Warner Bros (and CNN). However the Ellison family outbid Netflix with $110 billion. Radical left wing senators like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren are trying to claim "national security concerns" to block the merger. In reality, they are terrified at the thought of the left losing their control on the media narrative.

NEW: Netflix Board Member Susan Rice Susan Rice is calling for investigations into CBS-owned Paramount, the company competing with Netflix for the Warner Bros. merger: “But some of the stuff that seems to be going on at CBS is dubious at best, and so I do think that there ought to be inquiries, but no replication of what Trump has done, which is essentially wielded the authority of the FCC and crony capitalism to benefit his ideological allies in the media and disadvantage the American people." Clearly, Rice and Team Obama still love embracing lawfare and weaponized government against their political and business opponents.

Javier Bardem in #Cannes: "I believe there is an increasing monopoly in the world of information, given Paramount and Warner Bros. and their merger for example." "Who is actually going to patrol all of this, what we’re listening and what we’re seeing?... [technology and social media] indeed have a large impact on the young generation and that concerns me to no end, because we have to ensure that the younger generation continues to think, to apply reason ... In Spain we’re suffering from this very phenomenon, at present there is no democracy in the media, that’s my firm belief. I think this is a very dangerous situation. So basically, what solution can there be? I don’t know, personally. That’s just my viewpoint. I think we need to denounce the situation, talk about it, and I certainly don’t support the situation underway."

Bonta: We identified three markets where they’re violating the law and the judge was persuaded by all of our arguments. So she’s issued an order blocking the merger. It’s very clear that Paramount and Warner Bros. can take no steps toward consummating the merger. She also set a briefing schedule for a hearing on a preliminary injunction. If we obtain that injunction at the hearing, which will be held in two weeks, it will block the merger throughout the pendency of the litigation.
