Flipping a whole f***ing studio like a auctioned off home is nasty work. I just feel sorry for every single person working at Warner Bros at this point.

If you're a creator, why would you even work with Warner at this point? Any project you are a part of could be scrapped at any time, even long after it's completed.

So does this mean WWE and AEW will now be on the same streamer? Of course, I can also see Steph and Nick just reopening access to WWE Network back to America if this deal goes through. Shocked Triple H hasn't done that yet, honestly. Because he’s not a f***ing fool? NBCU is paying WAAAY more money for the Network content then WWE was making off Network subs. Why break a contract, piss off a crucial partner and probably lead to a lawsuit so you can make less money? If you're a creator, why would you even work with Warner at this point? Any project you are a part of could be scrapped at any time, even long after it's completed. Because it’s WB and not everyone is Chris Nolan? If you’re some no name, never been and WB gives you a paycheque and opportunity to get your foot in the door and build a reputation it would be pretty stupid to say “Nah, I’m good. I’m gonna keep eating ramen noodles, writing on a 10 year old MacBook and wait for Disney to call. Peace assholes”

Sorry but the FTC absolutely should not approve a merger between Universal and Warnercovery. That would be an absolute disaster for everybody in the media industry except for the few at the very top. We'd be down to four gigantic mega companies from a moderate eight a few years ago.

How Triple H seems to reverse most of the corporate, fan unfriendly stuff since he took over.

Can you imagine the inevitable film being made about this whole situation (obviously not by Warner though)?

Not to get too much into banned topics but it will all come down to who is in the White House when a potential merger comes along.

Khan and Steph would be the ones making decisions on network and Peacock stuff.

That was what allowed Disney to merge with 20th Century Fox. However, there are some left that prevented the purchase of Fox Sports by Disney. And Fox News was never for sale. My point is that there really isn't anything preventing a Warner/Comcast (NBCUniversal) merger from happening. Maybe Warner would keep news and sports, but that's about it. And, from what I've heard, Zaslav was really interested in CNN and not much else.
