"Skydance's Bid for Paramount Global Sparks Shareholder Concerns"

David Ellison, movie producer and heir to a technology fortune, is in negotiations to take charge of Paramount Global, the media giant that owns CBS, MTV, and Nickelodeon. He and his backers have agreed to pay a little more than $2 billion for Shari Redstone’s National Amusements, the family company that controls Paramount. Ellison aims to merge his production company, Skydance Media, with Paramount, but faces hurdles including satisfying the company’s other investors. The deal would value Skydance at about $5 billion, and Ellison would serve as CEO of the combined company, with his father Larry being considered for the role of chairman. Despite Paramount's poor performance, Ellison and his supporters intend to rebuild the company and invest billions of dollars in the business, aiming to preserve the Paramount+ streaming service and explore merging it with other platforms.
