When I say "presumptively illegal" I mean it literally: the 2023 merger guidelines set markers for structural presumptions, and a WB-Paramount tie-up would breach them.
California AG Rob Bonta, up for re-election next year, has constituents who want him to stand up. prospect.org/2025/10/30/f...
Under the Clayton Act and their interpretation in new merger guidelines written in 2023 by President Biden’s antitrust enforcers, a merger between Paramount and WBD would trigger several structural presumptions of illegality, with respect to both movie studios (the combined company would have more than 30 percent of the market) and televised news. Those 2023 merger guidelines are still in place, and importantly, state attorneys general can use them and the relevant federal laws to block the merger. Maybe state enforcers won’t want to prejudge the case, but others have already stepped forward. The Writers Guild of America, whose members are on the front lines of this potential sale, called a WBD tie-up with Paramount or any other studio or streaming service “a disaster for writers, for consumers, and for competition” and said their members would “work with regulators to block the merger.” I doubt that they’re referring to the Trump administration.

Honestly every leftist needs to try and understand dialectical and historical materialism. Marxism isn’t just “capitalism is bad 😡”. The real value of Marx and Engels work is the foundations of a scientific philosophy.

I’ve heard people compare it to YouTube or other compromises creators make with platforms, but that’s a lazy and weak excuse. There isn’t a competitor to YT or IG. But there are for podcasts and you are actually helping build/legitimize Spotify’s dream of being a monopoly for podcasts. Please stop.
