WBD RESPONDS TO PARAMOUNT LAWSUIT

By Mike Johnson on 2026-01-12 18:42:00

Deadline.com is reporting AEW broadcast partner Warner Bros. Discovery issued the following statement in regard to Paramount's latest legal maneuvering:

"Despite six weeks and just as many press releases from Paramount Skydance, it has yet to raise the price or address the numerous and obvious deficiencies of its offer.  Instead, Paramount Skydance is seeking to distract with a meritless lawsuit and attacks on a board that has delivered an unprecedented amount of shareholder value. In spite of its multiple opportunities, Paramount Skydance continues to propose a transaction that our board unanimously concluded is not superior to the merger agreement with Netflix.”
