Let’s hope Netflix takes the breakup fee of 2 Billion and walks away. There will be bloodbath if they try to match the offer.

I know WBD doesn’t seem to care about long term future, but if they go with Paramount they’re just gonna keep being a hot potato of debt that Ellison will eventually try and sell off down the road.

Better alignment of corporate values tbh.

I don’t own stock in any of this but I was really hoping Netflix’s ownership might eventually allow me to combine my Netflix and HBO subscriptions. Netflix has some headroom to make a better final offer though, I believe Paramount’s offer was best and final, and Netflix has a chance to provide a better offer. But if I were them I’d tak the $7B and walk.

State AGs hopefully will block the Paramount WB deal.

Anyone that didn’t think this was the inevitable result is a rube. Larry Ellison was always going to own CNN during an erection year.

Harden your hearts Netflix team, it is time to take on Ellison, your shareholders and the US government. I’ve had succession withdrawal for years. I NEED THIS!

Larry Ellison saw that Superman was defending ~~Palestine~~ “Jarhanpur” and realized no price was too high to acquire WBD and put an end to that illegal alien’s prevention of crimes against humanity.
It’s actually probably the new meta strat for any media companies that want to get the biggest acquisition bag possible, just show sympathy with Palestinians and some random billionaire will find unlimited money to buy you at a super premium just to censor the shit out of your art/media/community.

Netflix coming out as winners, I hope they rinse the breakup fee as that itself will boost earnings in one quarter. Then they can buy WBD in a few years’ time when paramount is facing bankruptcy.

Wonder why the Ellisons would want a bunch of cable networks right before midterm elections?!? 🤔

Ellison wins. That means they will control nearly 75% of all media forms in the U.S.

nflx will match it. unfortunately.

As a worker that has been part of mergers this is awesome for the staff at Netflix. Part of the essential staff at companies doing M&A get huge bonuses to stay regardless of the outcome. I recall it being about $50k for a multi-billion dollar merger.

Netflix CEO in Washington today discussing the potential merger.
WBD board still recommending Netflix’s offer.
Netflix stock, and any other stock that looks like one giant rocket up when you zoom out, was due for a correction. Anyone who thinks stocks just keep going up and up and up and never come down should sell everything they have — I’d hate to see how you do in a bear market lol.
I doubt this will scare off Netflix and if anything, we could see a final sale where WBD shareholders get a better deal than the $31 all cash, and Netflix and Paramount each walk away with part of WBD.

I bet Netflix walks away. On top of the stock reaction, you have orange man tweeting they need to remove board members for no reason. Pretty clear which side he is on – take the $2.8B and run
