Paramount Settlement Talks Hit Critical Stage as Merger Opponents Urge Rob Bonta to ‘Not Cave’
Warren said the settlement could clear the way for a $111 billion merger and create another Trump-controlled media giant, citing opposition from more than 75,000 people.
- On Saturday, Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren warned that settling the lawsuit against Paramount Skydance's pending $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery would be a "massive mistake to cave."
- Paramount Skydance and California Attorney General Rob Bonta entered advanced settlement discussions Friday regarding the lawsuit filed by Bonta and 11 other state attorneys general seeking to block the deal.
- Actor Mark Ruffalo continues pressuring Bonta, urging him not to "cave" and citing 5,670 filmmakers and more than 75,000 petition signatures gathered in 3 weeks opposing the merger.
- Paramount CEO David Ellison reportedly threatened to relocate operations to Texas, Tennessee, or Georgia by October 1, while the Block the Merger Coalition condemned the rumored settlement as an "insult to everyone."
- Warren linked her warning to President Donald Trump's recent ban of CNN and other outlets from the White House, suggesting the settlement reflects broader concerns about corporate media power.
