Netflix’s shocking [$72 billion bid to buy Warner Bros. and HBO](https://www.cnn.com/2025/12/05/media/netflix-deal-warner-bros) is the rare corporate mega-merger that can shift the tectonic plates of an entire industry and permanently change the way all of its participants do business.
In other words: It’s the kind of deal that could force antitrust regulators to put away their rubber stamps and take out their magnifying glasses.
Netflix will have to answer a crucial question: Why does it want to buy Warner Bros and HBO? That answer could determine both companies’ fates.
Netflix has its work cut out for it. It’s already begun laying out its case: The company has been talking up its world-class algorithm and deep understanding of what viewers want to watch. That’s on purpose: If antitrust enforcers believe the deal is about efficiency, regulators could let it skate through, because it could improve the consumer’s experience and encourage more competition.
If regulators believe Netflix is about growth and dominance, perhaps not.
“Antitrust enforcers will want to understand why Netflix is doing this deal at all, and they’ll need to understand the motivations as well as the executives involved,” said Doha Mekki, former acting assistant attorney general for the Department of Justice’s antitrust division, who served under Presidents Obama, Trump and Biden.
We’re getting really close to an “all restaurants are now Taco Bell” landscape.
Are they willing to Bribe Trump so he will allow DOJ approval?
So this really comes down to who will bribe the Trump admin more Paramount or Netflix.
Why does Netflix want to buy Warner Bros and HBO? That’s question the article is referring to.
Why did nobody asked that question when Disney acquired Fox???
Isn’t it 82 billion?
Is this a real question? “Why does Netflix want to buy Warner Bros and HBO?”…um, to make more money and own more shit. Why tf else?
That’s it folks. Wave goodbye to the creative industry.
I’ve spent the last year buying physical media with the idea that one day I may stop streaming all together. Tbh, I actually prefer it.
That’s where we are at. The writing is on the wall.
I really want this deal to fall through, the industry is already dangling on by a very thin thread, this deal is not good for anyone the consumers, artists, small productions, big productions, this is just not good and I hope it goes the fuck away…..
What if the point of the offer was to let the deal die. HBO will not be producing any ungreenlit material here forward until then merger is approved by the FED.
$5B to kill your only competitor is a hell of a lot easier than a full M&A deal.
