The biggest problem is the Ellison's relationship with Trump and their determination to become Big Honchos in the media world, which in their case also means the political world. If Netflix really wants Warner, they are going to have to lick a lot of tRump ass. Unfortunately for them, Ellison has a large lead on that kind of thing. They claim Netflix will be too big if they succeed but IMO, Paramount will have way too much power in the news world if they combine CBS etc with CNN etc. That is what they really lust after.
