YouTube Description
as posted by the channelMark Ruffalo called in live from Italy — where it was nearly midnight — to surprise Jim Acosta on air and sound the alarm about the Warner Bros Discovery and Paramount merger that he says threatens both Hollywood jobs and American democracy. Ruffalo helped organize a letter signed by over 1,500 filmmakers including David Fincher, Denis Villeneuve and J.J. Abrams, warning that two studios already struggling to produce films are planning to merge with $78 billion in debt — and the first casualty will be the working crews. With Hollywood already on its knees and media consolidation accelerating, Ruffalo explains why this fight goes far beyond movies — and why silence is no longer an option.
