Arguing that the merger has led to the 'hollowing out' of an 'iconic American studio,' the lawmakers also cited the cancellation of projects and the removal of content from the HBO Max platform (Cont.)

“The company has the incentive and ability to eliminate broad swaths of its workforce, leaving workers with fewer choices for employment and advancement,” the lawmakers wrote in their letter . They cited the layoffs over the past year, including the shutdown of CNN+, as well as later cuts at CNN and in areas like ad sales.

on the grounds that it would ultimately harm authors. After a federal judge ruled in the government’s favor, the companies abandoned that transaction.

So ridiculous and stupid 🙄

Hey Deadline, Elizabeth Warren is the senator for MA not CA.

As much as I hate how WB was operated in the time after the merger I don’t see how the government has any jurisdiction over what film a studio releases or doesn’t, which shows gets renewed or canceled. This is dumb.

Elizabeth warren is not a CA senator lol

What an insane overreach. The workers on the production were paid. It's not anticompetitive to choose not to release a movie. This reeks of culture war.

Good, I think.

They wrote that 'audiences will never see such projects like Batgirl, a $90 million film that was cancelled while 'deep into post-production,' despite consumer outcry, reportedly to allow WBD to claim a tax break'
