Clips — 16
00 paramount and warner - the merger clears
01 01- Bonta - Not A Vote Of Support, Not A Blessing Of The Merger
📺 Bonta — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Bonta (KTLA 5): Bonta opens: "The beating heart of America is film and TV industry. And I'm here to announce a settlement that our coalition of attorneys general has reached with Paramount that resolves the antitrust concerns at the heart of our lawsuit against the company and Warner Brothers. This is a court enforceable settlement." Then the line the rest of the folder hangs on: "I want to be clear about something right…
02 02- Bonta - Only Five Percent Made Here, Thirty Movies A Year
📺 Bonta — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Bonta (KTLA 5): The terms, read out: "Today we know that the vast majority of the company's global production takes place abroad and only a small fraction, about 5% only, of the company's films are made here in this country… Paramount is required to move production back to the United States by spending as a floor at least $300 million more each year… The company will also produce 30 movies in each of the first two years of…
03 03- Bonta - The Tax Credit Escalator, Five Percent To Forty
📺 Bonta — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Bonta (KTLA 5): "Importantly, that is the baseline. That is the minimum. If there are upsides that have triggers where there could be 300% more production in the United States, 500% and 700%… If Congress passes a federal film tax credit — and as you know, because you're following, they are considering that as we speak — Paramount has agreed that 20% of all film production must be in the United States for the first two…
04 04- Lazarus - The Financials Do Not Pencil Out, Twenty Films Last Year
📺 Lazarus — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Lazarus (KTLA 5): "It seems pretty astonishing. He says that it's court enforceable." Lazarus: "I'm sure we all share the attorney general's hopes that this will be good for Hollywood… In fact, shares of Paramount Skydance up sharply today as shareholders go, whew, okay, glad to get this deal behind us. But let's take a look at the financials because really, they don't quite pencil out… Paramount has committed to spend an…
05 05- Lazarus - Eighty Billion In Debt And The Nashville Threat
📺 Lazarus — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Lazarus (KTLA 5): "Now, second, this deal will leave, I believe, Paramount saddled with an estimated $80 billion in debt. And that is a debt load that makes layoffs and sales of assets, no doubt — including some of the cable channels — almost a certainty… And keep in mind, this very expensive merger comes as Hollywood increasingly and consistently asks for tax breaks from California taxpayers… It means ultimately Paramount…
06 06- Lazarus - Redundancies, Layoffs And What Happens To CNN
📺 Lazarus — KTLA 5 (MSM)
Lazarus (KTLA 5): "…it would have been an extremely expensive move to take all of their jobs, or at least management jobs, over to Nashville. But the real question now is, when you bring together two Hollywood studios you are obviously facing an enormous number of redundancies — in marketing, in distribution, and all the other things such as the support that goes into film. So even if you are stepping up your domestic film…
07 07- NBC - Independent Editorial Boards For CBS News And CNN
📺 NBC NEWS NOW (?)
NBC (NBC NEWS NOW): "It's a bit confusing. He's saying, well, we've settled, we've resolved some of our antitrust concerns, but we still don't like this merger." Canal: "It stood out to me immediately… just the messaging around this. We did go on to say that there is independent oversight, financial penalties and even potential divestitures if the companies don't follow through… the combined company will have to release a…
08 08- NBC - A Small Industry Even More Concentrated, Room To Raise Prices
📺 NBC NEWS NOW (?)
NBC (NBC NEWS NOW): "Do we know whether Paramount is going to leave Los Angeles or not in all of this?" Canal: "No. And apparently they're sticking around, making a $1 billion commitment to stay in California." Anchor: "And how does all this affect all of us who consume media? This is a giant merger. What changes in what we watch?" Canal: "Two studios, two news organizations… you think about all the assets now coming under…
01 hollywood after the merger
01 01- PBS - Two Newsrooms Under One Umbrella, And Bonta's Conditions
📺 PBS NewsHour (MSM)
PBS (PBS NEWSHOUR): "A day after Paramount Skydance and a group of state attorneys general announced a settlement clearing the way for its merger with Warner Brothers Discovery, questions remain about whether the deal does enough to protect consumers and competition. The $111 billion merger would create one of the biggest media companies in the world… It would also put two major news organizations, CBS News and CNN, under…
02 02- Darcy - The Nashville Threat Is What Actually Moved Bonta
📺 Darcy — PBS NewsHour (MSM)
Darcy (PBS NEWSHOUR): "What ultimately led to this settlement? Was it Ellison's threat to move Paramount out of California, or something else entirely?" Oliver Darcy: "The threat from Ellison to move out of California seems to have loomed large over this. If you remember, Rob Bonta was calling this an illegal merger for some time and really vowing to go all the way with this and saying he was comfortable going to court.…
03 03- Darcy - Thirty Films, But They Can Co-Produce Half Of Them
📺 Darcy — PBS NewsHour (MSM)
Darcy (PBS NEWSHOUR): "I think that people are looking at the settlement that Rob Bonta got and not super thrilled with it. For instance, the big point about they have to release 30 films a year in theaters — if you look at the fine print, they do have to release 30 films, but they can co-produce half of them. So they only really have to release 15 films on their own, and then they can co-produce the other half and get…
04 04- Darcy - Paramount Picks Its Own Watchdog, And A Fig Leaf For The Deal
📺 Darcy — PBS NewsHour (MSM)
Darcy (PBS NEWSHOUR): "This company that's going to be formed is going to be under billions of dollars in debt. They're going to need to find a lot of cost savings, and that's going to result regardless in a loss of jobs moving forward." On the board: "Usually when you have an editorial board that's supposed to safeguard CNN and CBS from management, you wouldn't have management get to select all the board members. In this…
05 05- Darcy - They Asked For Structural Remedies And Got Behavioural Ones
📺 Darcy — PBS NewsHour (MSM)
Darcy (PBS NEWSHOUR): "Who actually polices all of this? How quickly could the states act if Paramount decides to start testing the boundaries of this settlement?" Darcy: "They theoretically have some avenues to enforce this… for instance, if they don't release 30 films a year, for each film they don't release they're on the hook for, I think, $30 million or so. But again, ultimately this was not what Bonta was asking for.…
06 06- Tom Rogers - One Guy, One Computer, Twenty Five Thousand Dollars
📺 Tom Rogers — CNBC (MSM)
Tom Rogers (CNBC): "AI getting in on the movie-making business — production company Fountain Zero releasing its latest AI film this month, 'Odysseus: The Fall'. It was produced at a fraction of the cost of traditional big-budget films by using artificial intelligence in every scene and image." Media mogul Tom Rogers, executive chairman of Fountain Zero and former NBC Cable president: "When I was on last time we showed…
07 07- Rogers - Nolan's Odyssey Cost Two Hundred And Fifty Million
📺 Rogers — CNBC (MSM)
Rogers (CNBC): "As many people know, Nolan's version of the Odyssey cost $250 million — and you could make 10,000 versions of our film for that number. But the important point is that what we've developed here is a system for independent producers — two-person writer/director teams — to sit down with the software we have built on top of a video model and autonomously, without any other human beings involved, including…
08 08- Rogers - Licensing Your Face, And The End Of The Studio's Leverage
📺 Rogers — CNBC (MSM)
Rogers (CNBC): "Does this supplant Hollywood or does it augment it?" Rogers: "There are the images of 13 live people in Odysseus. I happen to play Mentor. My image is Mentor. I have no acting ability whatsoever… And I think well-known personalities will license their images to AI films, and their voices — and I think that will be a lucrative role for many. On the other hand, when it comes to the studios, their leverage in…

02 07- CNN - The Ban Looks Personal, And The Playbook Letter Says So
📺 CNN AC360 (?)
CNN (CNN AC360): "The White House's own letter to Politico yesterday explaining the president's ban seems to also argue that this was personal. Quoting: 'In September 2026, Politico Playbook relied on unnamed sources to paint the Republican midterm convention in Dallas as a disaster. Media reporting showed that the convention had over 100 million live-stream views.'" Note: Judge Kelly was appointed by this president. Part…

So they start with Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln. They were portrayed by contemporary newspapers as backward…" Kasie Hunt. The historical frame for…

📺 Trump — FOX 5 NEW YORK (?)
Trump (FOX 5 NEW YORK): The question, in full: "Mayor, first, what's your response to President Trump banning outlets from the White House grounds?

And Mr. President, are you banning outlets like MS NOW, CNN and Politico in order to distract from the Iran war and high gas prices?"…
05 05- Trump - I Have An Obligation Not To Let Fake News Into A Special House
📺 Trump — FOX 5 NEW YORK (?)
Trump (FOX 5 NEW YORK): Straight on from 01-04: "…That's Democrat National Committee. But it's just biased news. And I think that these outlets have an obligation to be fair. And if they're fake news, I really think I have an obligation not to allow them into another very special house. This is a special house, Gracie Mansion.

📺 Trump — FOX 5 NEW YORK (?)

Obama At Colgate (THE INDEPENDENT): "I believe there was just an announcement that the White House decided — you know what, CNN, MSN, MS NOW, maybe the New York Times was included — you just can't come to the White House press briefings anymore because you're giving the current president unfavourable coverage. I'm trying to think what would have happened if I had said, you know what, Fox News, get out of here. It's…

📺 Garrett — CBS NEWS THE TAKEOUT (?)
Garrett (CBS NEWS THE TAKEOUT): Adrian Washington: "I'm Adrian Washington. Welcome to The Takeout. President Trump never, ever, ever, ever compares himself to President Barack Obama. He did today.

📺 Garrett — CBS NEWS THE TAKEOUT (?)
Garrett (CBS NEWS THE TAKEOUT): "Back to today. No video coverage of Trump today. There's a reason. CNN, you see, was in the TV pool rotation. Quick explainer: the five dominant TV newsrooms — CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, Fox — share the costs and duties of White House coverage on a rotating daily schedule. CNN was up today. Trump has banned CNN. That meant there was a void. The other networks refused to fill it. Still,…
