    1. At this point, studios aren’t competing on creativity, they’re competing on who has the richest friends.

      Larry Ellison looks like a twelve year old boy cosplaying as an old man cosplaying as a middle aged man.

      My hope is they turn this into a bloodbath and tie it up in courts for 3 more years and then MAYBE we get an admin that blocks it.

      Why is this 81 year old trying to ruin everything he can on his way out?

      We gotta tax billionaires out of existence, or we will never have freedom. 1 billion dollars is the jackpot. You won life. You’ll never want for anything, generations after you will be taken care of… I say we tax everything over $999,999,999.00 at 100%.

      And let’s use that money for public funded elections (among other things), and put a hard cap on individual campaign contributions at like $100 or something. No PACS or any of that crap. Public funding, and limited individual contributions, and done.

      We would fix SO MUCH that way.

      In societies where God was worshipped the tyrants would oftentimes justify their rule by declaring divine favor. In our society where wealth is worshipped it’s unsurprising that we see something similar. People like Ellison believe their wealth is proof of their right to power, just as those tyrants believed God’s favor was proof of theirs.

      Now that the government has not only abdicated it’s role of keeping them in check, but has itself been captured by their wealth, we are seeing them take as much power as they can. They will not stop.

      I could give a shit about Ellison’s money.

      Jared Kushner also dumped a ton of money in there, and then his father-in-law ordered the FTC to review the Netflix/Warner deal.

    8. Larry is already overcommitted on AI, and he can’t win there either. Watching this implode will put the cap on his story arc. A grand adventure, but no redemption. And then the mental decline as he watches it all fall apart.

      Most of these nepo babies go through life with mommy / daddy issues because they never gave them any attention. It’s actually refreshing to see Larry willing to blow his over leveraged fortune on his kids failed projects

      You will never see musk/gates/trump/bezos do anything like this

    10. Remember a few years back when elon put down 40 billion for twitter and that felt like a lot?

      Now they all just throw around that much billions like they dont care.

      Eat the rich.

      the Ellisons want to turn Paramount into fox news 2.0 and want to grab warner into that mud

      Dude this is done. Netflix is the winner. This is just a waste of time

      Not old leather face who recently nixed a Trump story on 60 minutes.

      Fuck media consolidation by Oligarchs.

      A guarantee from a guy who looks like he may have died weeks ago is probably not worth much

    15. It should scare everyone how rapidly and obviously these cretins are attempting to capture the entirety of U.S. media.

      Why does this man always look like a mannequin? I half expect Jeff Dunham to pop out from behind a screen.

    17. blueblurz94 on

      It always comes down to who has more money and/or who is less evil. Just like politics

    18. This is very convenient. Especially coming the day after he killed the 60 minutes story.
