YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

More than 1,000 Hollywood actors, directors and screenwriters have penned a letter opposing the $110 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. by Paramount Skydance Corp. #business #usa #worldnews #hollywood #film #tv #movie

The letter cites concerns about job losses and higher costs with fewer choices for consumers, stating the transaction would further consolidate an already concentrated media landscape.

Paramount said in a statement that the transaction will bring together complementary strengths to create a company that can greenlight more projects and support talent across multiple stages of their careers.
