The media war you're watching on the news is NOTHING compared to the media war happening behind the news. In this episode, I'm breaking down how Netflix – the same company that crushed the entire streaming game – just ran into the REAL bosses of media… and why a $108 billion hostile takeover tells you everything you need to know about power, propaganda, and who really runs America.Netflix tried to level up from “just streaming” to owning the airwaves – TNT, TBS, CNN, the whole Warner Bros Discovery empire. Then Paramount + Skydance pulled up like, “Nah… we want ALL of that” – with an all-cash, $108B offer straight to the shareholders, backed by Larry Ellison's money, Saudi wealth funds, and Trump's son-in-law's capital. This ain't just about movies. This is about who controls the narrative. And they don't let just anybody touch that.Join our Exclusive Patreon!!!

Kate Wolf is joined by two of today's finest film critics to discuss the current state of Hollywood—including the sale of Warner Brothers Discovery—the art of writing about movies, and some of the year's best films. Up first is critic A.S. Hamrah, author of two new books: Last Week In End Times Cinema, which compiles the relentless follies of the film industry from March of 2024 to 2025 in an annals of ever-winnowing corporate conglomeration and AI speculation, and Algorithm of the Night: Film Writing 2019-2025. Next, Melissa Anderson discusses her latest book, The Hunger: Film Writing 2012-2024. A self-proclaimed "acteurist" whose attention often centers on a film's star rather than its plot, Anderson's criticism engages with movies on an affective level, charting her own pleasure, desire, and occasional disgust. Here she talks about grounding her writing in queer and feminist politics and how her ardent cinephilia is born of a sense of open-minded curiosity, hopefulness, and the willingness to be transported.

Hoe vaak hoor je nu dat een mediabedrijf samengaat met een kernfusiebedrijf? Waarin de sociale media van de president van Amerika fuseert met een kernfusiebedrijf waar wetenschappers werken? Dat hoor je één keer. Vandaag.Trump Media fuseert namelijk met TAE Technologies, een deal goed voor 6 miljard dollar. En daar stopt de invloed van de president op de beurshandel niet. Hij hervormt de cannabismarkt, waardoor investeren in marihuana ineens aantrekkelijker wordt. Aantrekkelijk vinden beleggers Nike dan weer niet. Al jaren wachten ze op de comeback van het bedrijf. Jarenlang neemt de beurskoers én omzet af. De kwartaalcijfers zijn beter dan verwacht, maar Nike is er nog steeds niet. Deze aflevering kijken we wanneer dat herstel er nu wél komt. Kijken we ook naar TikTok. Er is een Amerikaanse deal, een waar de familie Ellison bij betrokken is. Verder hoor je ook meer over de miljadenlening aan Oekraine en de overnamesoap rondom Warner Bros Discovery.

Ep. 313: Pope & Pollo Del Mar discuss the Cena's Saturday Night's Main Event match and opponet, Netflix buying Warner Brothers Discovery and what it means for AEW, TNA's AMC Deal and more.

Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research, says that "Bull markets don't die of old age, they die of fright, and what they are most afraid of is recession." But he says the current bull market not only doesn't need to be too worried about recession yet, he says that after celebrating its third birthday, it has gotten into the rarified air of a market that can keep running and producing positive results for longer. While he is not expecting a big, double-digit year in 2026 for the stock market, he says modest gains — tempered by heightened volatility and a downturn or two to overcome — are likely. In "The Danger Zone," David Trainer, president at New Constructs, revisits three past picks that outperformed as shorts but which then got the actual benefits of "stupid money risk" — something he discusses nearly every week on the show — as they were bought out by private equity firms in deals that bailed out some shareholders, but which says will not be enough to save bad businesses. Plus, Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, is back with "The Week That Is," digging further into the Warner Brothers Discovery buyout, discussing whether a selloff last week might be a sign that investors are getting weary and may bail out before Santa Claus comes for a rally, and looks at the potential for a SpaceX initial public offering in 2026, which might be the biggest IPO in history.

Les révélations pourraient avoir lieu d'ici au 19 décembre, date butoir fixée par la loi.Après avoir dévoilé il y a peu les photos de la résidence de Jeffrey Epstein à Little Saint James, l'île privée des Caraïbes où il aurait organisé son trafic sexuel, des élus démocrates ont rendu publiques cette nuit de nouvelles photos. Donald Trump apparaît sur plusieurs d'entre-elles. La pression est maximale sur le locataire de la Maison-Blanche. D'autant que son comportement interroge. Alors qu'il avait estimé durant sa campagne qu'il fallait faire toute la lumière sur ce dossier, il a semblé vouloir tout faire pour étouffer l'affaire une fois revenu au pouvoir.L'affaire Epstein n'est pas la seule à agiter l'actualité américaine. La bataille entre Netflix et la Paramount pour racheter le géant du divertissement Warner Bros Discovery fait elle aussi les gros titres outre-Atlantique.Entre Netflix, le champion mondial du streaming, et la Warner, l'affaire semblait entendue. Mais la Paramount a contre-attaqué, avec une offre à 108 milliards de dollars. L'entreprise est dirigée par David Ellison, le fils du milliardaire Larry Ellison, proche de Donald Trump. L'affaire prend donc un tour politique. D'autant que l'offre comprend le rachat de la branche média de la Warner, propriétaire de la chaine de télévision CNN. Donald Trump accuse depuis longtemps cette chaine de servir ses opposants démocrates et d'être un « ennemi du peuple ». Un changement de propriétaire et de ligne éditoriale ne serait pas pour lui déplaire. S'il se défend de toute ingérence dans ce dossier, il argue que Netflix, pour des raisons juridiques anti-trust, ne pourrait peut-être pas racheter la Warner.Le président américain n'est pas la seule personnalité au cœur du scandale Epstein.

OA1215 - We examine why the potential merger of Warner Brothers Discovery with either Netflix or Paramount would almost be certainly illegal under better circumstances before mourning the imminent loss of the independence of the one government agency which is supposed to stop this kind of thing. What exactly is the Federal Trade Commission, and why was destroying it a top priority for Project 2025? We then take a closer look at this week's oral arguments in Trump v. Slaughter, in which the Supreme Court's MAGA majority is poised to turn the FTC and dozens of other independent agencies into tools for Trump's corruption and graft. Finally, in today's footnote: why is an actual government website hawking the Trump Gold Card, and can the President really just make up a completely new way to give anyone with one million dollars a new path to US citizenship?

On this week's episode, Gabfest old friends Steve, Julia, and June Thomas convene on two showbiz works of midlife retrospection and regret: the new film Jay Kelly and Stephen Sondheim's Merrily We Roll Along. The former, directed by Noah Baumbach, stars George Clooney as the titular movie star looking back on his life while on a European train picaresque. The latter was a legendary flop for Sondheim, had a triumphant Broadway revival starring Jonathan Groff, Daniel Radcliffe, and Lindsay Mendez, and now has arrived at movie theaters. In our third segment, the panel turns to another showbiz saga full of bitter regret: the fight to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery. Joined by writer and Hollywood watcher Mark Harris, they untangle the fight between Netflix and Paramount to outbid each other for the legacy film studio—and what it all has to do with Trump and the future of movie-going itself.  In an exclusive bonus episode for Slate Plus subscribers, it's back to join the Joined in our recap discussion of Pluribus episode 7 “The Gap.”  Act now, there's still time to leave us a voicemail with your burning cultural queries for our annual call-in show by calling us at 347-201-2397.

The fate of Hollywood rests in President Trump's hands as Netflix and Paramount fight to acquire Warner Brothers Discovery—the home of HBO Max, Harry Potter, and Superman. Will Trump back Paramount's bid by longtime loyalist Larry Ellison (with help from presidential son-in-law Jared Kushner)? Or will Netflix's Ted Sarandos be able to woo the President to his side? Jon, Tommy, and Lovett discuss Trump's involvement in the Hollywood mega-deal and all the rest of the news, including the administration's bailout for soybean farmers who have been hurt by tariffs, Congressional Republicans unwillingness to do anything about the coming ACA premium hikes, and the President's promise to sign an executive order that would sweep away state AI regulations. Then, Bloomberg's Lucas Shaw, who broke the Warner Brothers merger news, talks to Lovett about the future of Hollywood and the details of the rival bids for WBD.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

This week on Market Mondays, we kick things off with our Futures Trading Tip of the Week and a breakdown of the biggest investing mistake of the year. We dive into the shocking rebound of Carvana joining the S&P 500 after nearly going bankrupt — debating whether it's a true comeback story or a sign the market is getting reckless again. We also break down the massive bidding war for Warner Bros Discovery, who needs WBD the most to survive the next decade, and what this means for the future of media. Caleb Silver, Editor-in-Chief of Investopedia, joins us with expert data and insight throughout the discussion.We compare Paramount's heavy debt load to Netflix's growth and free cash flow dominance and question whether a Netflix–WBD deal would spark a new era of media consolidation or run into regulatory roadblocks. From there, we shift to AI and corporate strategy, analyzing IBM's $11B acquisition of Confluent and whether M&A is becoming the quiet force powering the next leg of the AI boom. We also cover holiday spending vs weak investor sentiment, whether investors should rotate into safer stocks, and what Wednesday's Fed decision could mean for markets heading into 2026.To wrap up, we go rapid-fire: the most attractive stocks currently dipping for LEAPs and swing trades, which companies are less likely to be corrupt or mismanaged, whether failed AI bets could force bailouts in tech, Bitcoin's next move toward $65K or $70K, Apple's potential talent crisis after losing multiple key executives, and if an oil collapse into the $30s could make the entire energy sector uninvestable. A packed episode with strategy, clarity, and expert perspective. #MarketMondays #EarnYourLeisure #CalebSilver #Investopedia #Investing #StockMarket #Bitcoin #OptionsTrading #AIStocks #MediaMergers #Carvana #Apple #OilPrices #WealthBuilding #FinancePodcast #EYLSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
