>In a July 21 letter to Skydance CEO David Ellison, Sens. Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Ron Wyden asked a series of pointed questions about Skydance’s Paramount deal. Among those: “Is there currently any arrangement under which you or Skydance will provide compensation, advertising, or promotional activities that in any way assist President Trump, his family, his presidential library, or other Administration officials?” The letter also asked, “Were you or other Skydance executives involved in discussions about canceling The Late Show with Stephen Colbert?”
>In a letter sent Thursday in response to the senators, Stephanie Kyoko McKinnon, Skydance’s general counsel and co-president of business operations, said in part, “Throughout its history and during the review of the proposed acquisition of Paramount, Skydance has fully complied with all applicable laws, including our nation’s anti-bribery laws.”
>Skydance was “not involved” in CBS’s decision to cancel “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” according to McKinnon. “Paramount did provide notice of its decision to Skydance [about the show being canceled], but only after Paramount reached its own independent decision, and shortly before Paramount publicly acknowledged the cancellation.” CBS said the cancellation of Colbert’s show was “purely a financial decision.”
Of course duh they’re not going to admit it, but the timing was super suspect.
Nobody believes lying corporations anymore.

Fully *worked around* those anti bribery laws. What do you think their lawyers are amateurs? This is America. Such laws only exist to make the elites lawyers a bunch of $$$
This just in, corporation doesn’t admit to committing crime.
Does it matter what they deny when the person they bribed bragged about it?!
If that’s the case, then fucking uncancel Colbert!!
