Didn't Era hate ZASLAV for the longest time because of how he was running WBD?

Awesome 

Why we are still doing this song and dance?


Quote:Para was always buying cnn regardless. Any studio projects even potentially related to him wouldnt get released until after hes out of office anyways. Ellison as with any major executive will kiss up to whoever is in office.

And that makes it okay because…

I didnt say it was okay. Im saying what it is. Im not sure the point of splitting up the post when the latter provides the context for the former.

The Ellisons were democrats until they weren't. They are Republicans until they aren't anymore. Not specific to Trump. Perhaps not the process, but the effects of this merger wont involve Trump at all because he will be long gone out of office. This shit takes forever. The bidding process alone took 6 months and is still going. The regulatory process is going to take fucking forever, especially in Europe, if it gets done at all. Then the idea of projects on top of that, theres more years on top of that. Trump is done in 2028. The math shouldn't be hard for them, but they couldn't comprehend why Paramounts offer was attractive to begin with, so I guess I need to lower my expectations.

Era doesn't give a shit if CNN or CBS dies either. Most of the people on there get most of their news from X or Bluesky.

Aren't news channels already going down the drain along with the rest of linear television? Don't most people get their news slop from curated social media feeds that are designed confirm the user's biases and keep retention up regardless of facts?

WB has hopped so many companies (AOL, AT&T, Discovery) that I wouldn't worry about it. Netflix will simply buy WB for half the price in a few years.  lol

Movie theatres can rebuild. Democracy fucking can't.

omfg Fox News, Fox Broadcasting, and 20th Century Fox were all under the same banner and controlled by Rupert Murdoch and yet America was just fine. Puny Smasher is being way too dramatic over this.

it's like saying you're going to hong kong, not china.
"I can't wait to visit Tokyo"
"Doesn't visiting London sound fun?"
"My brother lives in New York City"
Not much reason to mention the country, if you're already familiar with where the city's located.
Now if you mentioned that "My aunt went to Dodoma," you'd absolutely need to stress "Tanzania" since that's not a very commonly discussed place

Funny thing is, you do sometimes hear cities being used in place of nations. It's not uncommon to hear "Moscow has decided to deploy more troops to the front in Ukraine" or "Washington will make a decision on the tariffs" when it's clear this is referring to the countries or the leaders themselves
Just one of those little quirks of socialization
I don't envy those very far on the spectrum who might never get it

Nintendie refugees continue to take all of the lessons of Resetera moderation and say, "What if we were even MORE sensitive?"

Could go either way, I guess.

Shit joke, but only because the execution didn't land. Who thinks that is offensive?



Holy shit, this one is even more insane:

Brock Reiher wrote:Phil gave us lots of free games for a cheap price with Gamepass, but it was time for him to go. Nice to see a Sharma in charge hope they can turn it around!

Only thing I can see potentially wrong there is referring to the new XBOX head as "a Sharma" which could be construed as something like saying "a Pajeet" or some other such term. What makes it hilarious is that her first name is Asha which could just have meant it was an editing/typing error (i.e. copied and pasted "Asha Sharma" and only deleted "Ash"). 

Instead NINE moderators decided this was definitely racist and deserving of a permanent ban for a member who was there from day 2 and had nearly 10,000 posts. How did this blatant racist avoid letting the mask slip all that time?

Real narcissist trying to imagine how other people who must also be narcissists think vibes. Like, what? Why would they be next? "Because they'll come for everyone!" Who will? "The fascists and bigots aka everyone in history ever by my standards!" Who would be next? "The gays! The blacks! The cis women!" Uh, they already went through state oppression BEFORE YOU and still during the whole period before you ever even knew of the concept of being trans plus currently in many places in the world, dude. It's so fucking dumb and they think it's this amazingly worldly argument nobody could resist. Also that bigots/fascists/nazis/whatever are hiding their feelings about all the people they hate and want to do shit to instead of constantly talking about it and basically only ever talking about that even when it's not really the topic. lol

And this from people who deny "hate speech" or allowing the President to ignore the law and do whatever he wants (oops they're against that again) or whatever else they're demanding the state (or anyone else) do to people could ever be used against them.

first they came for the trans folx,

and I said nothing.

then, they never came for me and everything was fine,

because I use the correct restroom.
