Paramount negotiates a settlement to clear obstacles in its $1110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery.

According to 36Kr, Paramount is pursuing a settlement in a lawsuit aimed at blocking its $1110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, hoping to clear the way and avoid a large termination fee if the deal closes. The talks involve protections for CNN's editorial independence and may include divesting certain cable channels, including Comedy Central, in discussions with a California-led coalition of 12 states.
