Comcast to potentially buy part of Warner/Discovery in future

[Jerroddragon]

It would be funny if Universal can pick up WB on the cheap after this

But yeah another example of why CEOs are overpaid

Its expected they will split linear from the studios if they split happens....so it would make it easier for them to acquire.

Acquisitions and mergers will largely depend on the very near political results.

I really do wonder if Universal bought WB how it would impact the WB representation at Six Flags. Is that contract forever? Can it be renewed after a certain amount of time?

But I have a feeling that Universal may let them keep DC and Looney Tunes and just maybe set apart a different deal when they can do so.

I think for now they would keep it but if we didn't get a dreamworks/illunation Lonny Tunes film 5-10 years after they did merge I'd be very surprised

You gotta just laugh at a certain point.

I still find it weird how you can just reorganize your company and jettison all your debt, as this article seems to be implying. Also, why would anyone want a company that's just composed of declining networks and debt in the first place, and doesn't have access to the intellectual property that makes those cable networks worthwhile in the first place?
