Show Notes
California Attorney General Rob Bonta is spearheading an antitrust review of the proposed $110 billion merger between Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery, focusing on its impact on competition and jobs in Hollywood. With the federal government seemingly disinterested, Bonta is coordinating with New Yorks Attorney General and potentially others to scrutinize the deal. Hollywood workers fear massive layoffs and fewer opportunities for creatives, viewing the merger as a threat to talent and consumers. Bontas office has a history of blocking mergers that harm workers, and the review is ongoing with possible settlements on the table.
