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.

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 Ellison wants Warner Bros. Discovery to have some semblance of the scale that would be required to compete in a world that is dominated by Netflix, YouTube, TikTok, Apple, Amazon, the list goes on.” “The notion that somehow a combined Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery is going to be this massive, dominant business that is going to corner every aspect of the market...that’s just not real.” “I think Bonta has an uphill climb in that regard. But he can certainly create headaches, and certainly legal fees, for Ellison for many months.”

The DOJ approved the Paramount-Warner Bros merger without even telling the department's lawyers who were ready to shut it down. The next day David Ellison got dinner with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump. This is more than media consolidation, it's oligarchy consolidation.

We cannot ignore the dangers of the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger. It threatens free speech, drives up costs and limits access to independent news. Corporate consolidation like this strikes at the heart of art and creative expression—the very magic that connects us as humans.

This 1998 SNL sketch aired once and then was apparently banned. It says a lot about the dangers of a handful of corporations controlling the vast majority of our media. It’s also eerily prophetic given the Warner Bros/Netflix/Paramount merger saga. Watch.

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.

🚨🇺🇸 NETFLIX’S $72 BILLION TAKEOVER OF WARNER BROS SHAKES HOLLYWOOD TO ITS CORE Netflix just rewrote Hollywood’s future. The streamer announced a $72 billion cash-and-stock deal to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery’s film and TV studios, HBO, HBO Max, and gaming business... its largest acquisition ever and one of the biggest in media history. The offer values Warner Bros. at $27.75 per share ($23.25 in cash and $4.50 in Netflix stock), totaling $82.7 billion when factoring in debt. It beats rival bids from Paramount Skydance and Comcast and comes with a hefty $5.8 billion breakup fee if regulators block it. Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos said it’s all about growth and storytelling: “We can’t stand still. We need to keep innovating and investing in stories that matter most to audiences, and that’s what this deal is all about. The combination of Netflix and Warner Brothers creates a better Netflix for the long term. It sets us up for success for decades to come. Warner Brothers has some of the best entertainment in the world, period.” The merger would unite franchises like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and DC under one streaming roof, while preserving theatrical releases with shorter windows.

🇺🇸 JARED KUSHNER’S FIRM PULLS OUT OF WARNER BROS TAKEOVER BATTLE Kushner’s private equity firm, Affinity Partners, has exited the high-stakes effort backing Paramount Skydance’s hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros, signaling a major shift in one of the biggest media fights in years. The firm confirmed it is no longer pursuing the deal, citing rapidly changing dynamics around the bid. Affinity had been part of a deep-pocketed financial group supporting Paramount Skydance CEO David Ellison’s unsolicited offer, valued at more than $108 billion, for the entire Warner Bros empire. The withdrawal comes days after Warner Bros. and Netflix announced a separate agreement that would carve out key assets, including HBO, HBO Max, and the Warner Bros film studio, effectively undercutting Paramount’s full-company play. With multiple bidders circling and boardroom resistance growing, the ground shifted fast. Affinity said it still believes there is strategic logic behind Paramount’s bid, but competition and deal structure no longer justified staying in the fight. The fund had been aligned with major international investors, including Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and other Gulf-based backers. Warner Bros. is now widely expected to reject Paramount’s offer, while regulators loom over any potential merger. The media consolidation war isn’t slowing down. It’s just getting sharper.
