Media Consolidation and Political Influence

"It's okay when we do it,"

says libtards as they shriek from the

rooftops about the Ellisons,

David Ellison and Larry Ellison. Larry Ellison is

the multi-billionaire who runs

Oracle, and his son is running a media empire,

and that media empire just had a massive victory

in consolidating Paramount and Warner Brothers,

effectively bringing CBS

and CNN under the control of these two guys who, let's just say,

are friendly to Donald Trump. They also control a considerable stake in

TikTok,

and, uh, well, now Harry Potter.

So libtards on suicide watch

as CNN will be under the

control

of Donald Trump donors.

It's funny. Anyway, the point is is that they've won

after a bunch of liberal states decided to drop

a

massive lawsuit that was supposed to stop the merger.

It was already

approved by the Fed. That's normally the big hurdle,

but then the

states stepped in to try and put a tangle,

mess in front of this potential acquisition that would make a

very, very large media company. Certainly not the largest in the world.

Uh, ABC,

Disney still the largest in the world.

The number of news sites and the number of various publishing

entities and franchises that Disney owns is,

you know, almost insurmountable.

But you never hear anything about that because Disney's woke

and run by leftists.

Ah, it's never a problem when it's the left,

but now that it is people who have just been polite to Donald Trump,

well, here we go. Uh, the settlement of the lawsuit sets up

editorial independence

board for C- CBS and CNN. So this is what it was all about the whole

time. It was all about CNN,

that they, they couldn't stand the fact

that they could gut

CNN and turn it into a place that actually got ratings, which

is what would happen

if CNN did real reporting. The potential ownership of CBS

and CNN under

one corporate owner has generated months of fear, anxiety, and loathing from the

networks. Paramount/Warner Brothers Discovery

settlement

has resolved some of the issues with the establishment of an independent,

uh, executive board. Okay.

Whatever. It all boils down to who owns what,

and CNN wants to be able to continue to do this to Donald Trump.

They are particularly vexing to Donald Trump.

Every broadcaster in the world carried Donald Trump's

United Nations speech except for CNN.

Trump called CNN out to their faces in the lobby of the United

Nation.

... gonna cover me. You shouldn't- Hi, guys. So it's an honor to be here.

I'm surprised that CNN is here covering me.

You shouldn't be here.

We have an issue. We're out of seats, sir.

You should not, you should not be here covering me.

You said you weren't gonna cover me. You shouldn't be covering me.

It's just our assignment. But, but so it's-

It's funny. Roasted. It's official.

Paramount wins and will acquire Warner Brothers.

12 Democrat attorney generals, uh, have dropped their suit.

CNN will have a new, much saner owner. Huge media loss for Democrats.

Now they have just MSNBC.

Uh, the attorney generals have settled,

and now Paramount

merger will move forward.

Now, what will happen next?

Hmm.

Will they move Paramount to Texas, to Austin, Texas?

We've talked about... We even showed you the site

that they plan on moving

Paramount, which would be one of the biggest

Hollywood

moves ever, maybe the biggest Hollywood move ever.

If they turn a profit in Texas, then it would be the end of Hollywood.

Jane Fonda is freaking out. I don't give a damn about Jane

Fonda or what she has to say. I think that we should

send Jane Fonda

back

to Vietnam where she wants to live, and maybe we should

imprison her just for fun in one of the Vietnam prisons

that American forces had to live in

while she was protesting and supporting on behalf of the Viet

Cong. Exciting times, really. Paramount's have...

I would watch that live stream. It'd be neat. It'd be neat to see.

It'd be like Survivor, but real and

have a little sprinkle of vengeance to it.

Wow, exciting.

It could stream on Paramount Plus.

Paramount's official acquisition of CNN is a major loss for libs.

They have now lost Twitter, CBS News, and CNN, not to mention Late Night

is dead.

MSNBC is irrelevant. And they are panicking

because the shift is extreme. Nobody reads The New York Times, and

nobody watches MSNBC.

So what's going on next? The deal is consistent with the agreement reached

between

the states.

Paramount includes a requirement to release at least a hun- uh,

30 films annually,

additional 1.5 billion in US production spending in five years,

uh, restriction on combining cable networks

against negotiation, and an

editorial board establishing CBS and CNN, uh, significant

penalties for violations, including the potential forced sale of

other cable networks. Okay,

so there you go.

Uh, CNN is suing the president over the White

House ban.

Now we report that CNN is about to have a new owner, Paramount,

which is right-wing.

All right.

What will happen next? Never a dull moment.

Bernie Sanders is angry about it, so that means it's a good thing.

Far-left CNN is on its way out. Paramount is set to own it after 12

Democrat AGs folded.

There we go.

They lost.

They lost.

David Ellison shouts out Gavin Newsom for his support through this process as

Paramount and Warner Brothers merger goes through, giving Ellisons control of

CNN

and CBS.

Spencer Pratt's very happy. All the right people are happy.

All the wrong people are mad. Bernie Sanders is mad. Spencer Pratt

is happy.

Okay, great. For the record, David Ellison is weeks away from owning

CNN.

The White House ban is the least of their problems.

That's right.

They are freaking out at CNN.

Someone do a wellness check on Mark Ruffalo, says Critical Drinker.

Mark Ruffalo's blunder here should be studied.

These Democrat AGs already had a very weak antitrust case.

The minute Ruffalo injected his feelings about Israel and Democrats saw his

early tweets and tied ties to Bonita's lawsuit, it was going to

become harder to defend.

Good old Mark Ruffalo.

Helping everyone win here.

The mood inside CNN is like a funeral as staffers worry

that Paramount will

cast a new haze on the path forward for streaming and

independent journalism. Oh, good. Yummy, yummy.

In my tummy.

CNN mood is a funeral

as they are getting bought up and shipped out.

Just when staffers at CNN thought the news giant's path to the future was becoming

more clear, a new fog has set in. In recent weeks, Warner Brothers

appeared to have found its groove. Linear ratings, noticeably.

This article talks about how CNN has been working to try

and increase their revenue and subscription

revenue. They've been working really hard to try

and

get new stars and gain traction. Of course, they would never dare

invite on anybody who's an actual conservative or could actually defend the

president. But all that work could be for naught.

New corporate parent Paramount is set to take the reins of CNN

in October.

With change of control, they could entirely new goals in executing

them.

Even Mark Thompson, chairman of CEO of CNN,

seems to not know much about the next

step. In the coming days, you'll hear much more about what it means

to be

for CNN.

The mood at CNN is like a funeral, one person said.

CNN personnel has reasons to worry.

Paramount's management of CBS News has been controversial.

It's not been good for business of the news unit.

Changes made under Barry Weiss installed last year as editor-in-chief have brought

unnecessary scrutiny, public reports, blah, blah, blah.

Her takeover of 60 Minutes has been great, actually.

Weiss's decision to overhaul 60 Minutes, widely considered the jewel of CBS, has

left a vulnerable news magazine open to criticism. Oh, really?

Because they're actually doing stories that matter now to the American people.

Whether Paramount can serve as a good steward of CNN remains to be unseen.

Well, CNN can't be a good steward of CNN.

So

not really going to

worry there. You can't do any worse than what's

happened at CNN.

Caitlin Collins' explosive closed-door reaction to White House media ban.

A CNN insider reveals network revenge plot that will

infuriate Trump.

And twisted leverage conversation among bosses.

Okay, I don't think so.

You just got bought, okay?

You just got bought

by Trump's friends.

So trust me when I say, like, I think that these days are

over for CNN.

It is going to be a big uphill battle

for them to keep CNN libtard.

And if they could change CBS, CBS is a much bigger ship to

actually

steer and reposition. If they can do that at CBS, they can do it

at CNN.

It'll be fun to watch.
