In the next few days, this studio will have a public announcement made relative to them that the corporation swallowing them up will be stalled.

The government will announce they are suing to block the deal. The studio’s stock price will drop like a rock and a lot of investors and partners, both Russian and Arab, will lose a lot.

Behind the scenes, this politician is making good on his threats – that I told you about last month – that unless this network bends to his will?

He will block the takeover deal, which will allow congressional hearings – and politicians will go crazy grilling the studio and the corporation over their Hollywood abuse culture.

It’s the last thing the studio or corporation need now.

The studio head is already putting out feelers for a new job and told one Hollywood super agent (has a famous offspring) he’d take a job in Silicon Valley to escape the pressure.

Meanwhile, that friend/”employee” of the politician was told that if he has to resign his post due to overseas entanglements, he’s got the politician’s blessing to form a consortium to take over the studio for himself.

That is, of course, unless the corporation decides to cave in to the politician and become his personal “kneepads network” like this other network.

Mr. Trump Casts a Shadow Over the AT&T-Time Warner Deal

President Trump’s hostility toward the news media, and CNN in particular, has been so extreme that it is calling into doubt whether his appointees at the Department of Justice can fairly evaluate a merger involving the cable news channel’s parent company, Time Warner, and AT&T.

The Justice Department’s Antitrust Division has reportedly asked AT&T to sell the Turner Broadcasting division of Time Warner, a unit that includes CNN, or sell its DirecTV unit to gain approval for the deal. On its face, this is not an unreasonable request. Combining AT&T and Time Warner in their present form would create a vertically integrated telecom-media goliath. It would have the market power to hurt competitors and consumers by raising prices of popular shows like “Game of Thrones” and channels like HBO, CNN and TNT. Smaller rivals like Dish Network and regional cable-TV companies might have no choice but to pay or risk losing their customers to AT&T.

For these and other reasons, experts and lawmakers have been saying for months that a merger raises serious problems, and some sort of divestment seems necessary before it can be approved. But asking Time Warner to sell Turner Broadcasting and its CNN unit raises its own questions. Given Mr. Trump’s repeated attacks on CNN, there’s ample cause to suspect that the Justice Department scheme is a ploy to force a sale of the news organization to owners that will strip away its editorial independence and turn it into a house organ of the Trump administration. – Read more
