    Paramount is already owned by the Ellisons with Kushner and Saudi + PE involved.

    The real worry here is them buying the legacy TV stations controlled by Warner Bros. Discovery, like CNN, and turning them into more propaganda outlets like they have done with CBS.

    From the article:

    Affinity Partners, the private equity firm led by Jared Kushner, is part of Paramount's hostile takeover bid for Warner Bros Discovery, according to a regulatory filing.

    Why it matters:

    • Paramount is telling WBD shareholders that it has a smoother path to regulatory approval than does Netflix, and Kushner's involvement only strengthens that case.
    • Paramount is led by David Ellison, whose billionaire father Larry is a major supporter of President Trump. #Zoom in:
    • Affinity Partners was not mentioned in Paramount's press release on Monday morning about its $108 billion bid, nor were participating sovereign wealth funds from Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar.
    • Per the tender offer, each of those parties "have agreed to forgo any governance rights – including board representation – associated with their non-voting equity investments."
    • Each of them also was part of Paramount's original WBD bid on Dec. 1, although fellow partner Tencent subsequently left the group. #The bottom line: WBD could be the second major takeover Kushner has been involved in this year, having previously played a key role in the take-private agreement for gaming giant Electronic Arts.

    Why does he have on a microphone in this picture?  Who wants to listen to this guy?  He's just some creepy weirdo with a super rich dad.  No one needs to hear the bullshit he thinks.

    You mean the same Paramount that Trump just targeted in an unhinged Truth Social rant because of MTG’s 60 minutes interview? That Paramount?

    I think we understand now why Trump even mentioned this deal in the first place. LOL The most corrupt administration ever by a country mile.

    If Ellison / Paramount get CNN, Trump essentially controls the majority of remaining “mass media” news outlets, the Tik Tok algorithm , Twitter (via Elon tentative relationship) - it’s an absolute nightmare. Ellison gives him both ABC News and CNN on a platter.

    I wish all these evil rich people have miserable and short lives. They will want to own everything and make sure that anyone not rich like them suffers and never gets to enjoy good things in life.

    He’s clearly part of the orange guys cabinet based on the negotiations he’s involved in, so how isn’t this a major conflict of interest? Oh wait, doesn’t matter anyway those silly ethical standard and laws.
