      Firing Trump critics and paying him bribes so he’ll allow their merger with Skydance is a financial decision.

        When is something a billion dollar corporation does not a financial decision?

        Literally all it’s allowed to care about is profits

    At some point in the early 90s companies decided to start spinning their consumer abuses as ‘for your benefit’, and it has basically caused me to ignore all public corporate announcements as manipulative bullshit

    In a sane culture there would be regulations preventing things like this, but in our corporate friendly modern world they will never suffer consequences.

    We hare just a cash crop for them to harvest and burn

    Skydance is a zionist supremacist hedge fund. One of bidders for Tik Tok prior to election. Bid excluded Tik Tok’s success algorithm, and so was solely to prevent anti Zionist supremacist media. Skydance was also among zionist supremacist oligarchs who supported Trump because Biden administration wouldn’t Kent State anti genocide protests.

    Redstone familly are zionist supremacists as well, but they are the ones caving against 60 minutes and Colbert to facilitate Skydance’s ultrazionist bid.

    There has been growing speculation that both Colbert and Jon Stewart, who hosts one broadcast of Comedy Central’s “Daily Show” each week, could be under growing scrutiny from executives at Skydance Media, which is slated to acquire Paramount Global, the parent of both CBS and Comedy Central. David Ellison, who leads Skydance, has projected an image of being intrigued by the politics espoused by President Donald Trump, who Colbert and Stewart routinely skewer in monologues and commentary.
