Business What A WBD Week: As Bidders Circle, Paramount’s Shock And Awe Signals A New Media Age

Even in an industry increasingly accustomed to head-snapping change, this has been quite a few days. After three acquisition offers from Paramount Skydance, Warner Bros Discovery declared it was for sale. Netflix’s co-CEOs then confused Wall Street by not slamming the door on a possible bid. Sources tell Deadline that Amazon may be interested and Comcast will be taking a look, while Apple will likely pass (or so its investors hope). Whatever happens, the cascade of events promises to dramatically reshape the U.S. media business, with a fabled Hollywood studio, a top purveyor of prestige TV and a cable news mainstay all poised to change hands.
