MAGA will no rest until they fu-k up the entire world, not just the US. Look what's happened with Iran. The ellisons are in cahoots with donnie to take over media and finish the job of turning the US into an autocracy.
@cy exactly, it's the gift that keeps on giving
Netflix is the real winner here… They come out $3.2 billion richer. I think they were playing the long game this whole time.
@ax WarnerBruder-ZioMount.
@cx 100% This country is becoming more and more like Russia per second.
Sweet, now they can blow away HBO like we did with Showtime. Somehow Starz wins. Go Figure.
Great, not only was I laid off in a bad job market, a potential employer is being taken away.
Very obvious, it was nothing but lies about wanting to make Paramount great again, etc. It was always about becoming a kingpin and make Daddy proud. Also, one would think the Murdochs would have some concern about the coming competition against their monopoly on right(wing) news.

I'm deeply distributed and greatly bothered by this. They were supposed to lose!!! I'm going to cry...
Looks like Na-i Weiss will get a new toy to destroy alongside her horse-toothed nepo baby boss.

Nepo baby can destroy another company. He’s a fascist pig like his daddy
Annnd Netflix pulled their bid. We’re all sc--wed.
