The adviser said Netflix was bidding against a billionaire who signaled a willingness to pay a price for Warner Bros that Netflix viewed as irrational.

The fun part -

CNN (owned by WB) will now fall under Paramount’s News Division, controlled by ... Bari Weiss, who Leftists were howling over when she canned Stephen Colbert last fall

Now it gets interesting ...

I think I read Paramount and Larry Ellison are broke.

Seems Larry has been borrowing 10’s of billions with Oracle to build out AI data centers to compete with the big dogs.

He’s helping his kid (Skydance) put together the deal with Paramount...with Larry pledging $40bil of the expected $108bil deal...all in Oracle stock. Not cash.

Don’t be surprised if they cannot raise the money, not the least for the reason they’re paying too much.

Maybe nobody buys WBD.

A cesspool buys a garbage dump after a sewer-main walks away from the deal. How captivating!

AT&T bought Time Warner for $85 billion.

AT&T sold Time Warner for $43 billion and some equity.

Paramount is paying $111 billion for Discovery Time Warner.

Meanwhile, AT&T is getting $100 million from the taxpayers for moving out of Dallas. Meaning there may not be enough OPM to also build an arena for an NHL team that is fleeing Dallas.

I think in the long run, Netflix will be better off because I believe Paramont has overpaid grossly for Warner Brothers.

All you need to know is the far left and most of Hollywood are fuming that a Trump ally won the bidding

I’ve been a buyer of NFLX. Hope this marks the beginning of a recovery rally!

Hope this means an end to DEI. Netflix will double down.

[Alas Babylon!]

From the article:

Netflix shares jumped more than 10% after it declined to raise its offer.

Well, now they'll have more money for Transgender and gay movies.
