Some details about the Skydance/Paramount merger:
1. The company has apparently identified more than $2 billion in cost cuts it can make, mostly from linear media, and "quickly" (the most speculated thing is that BET will get sold off, as CBS, Nick, MTV, and Comedy Central were the only traditional TV operations mentioned)
2. The upcoming CEO envisions a new company combining Skydance Animation with Nickelodeon
3. The new company plans to utulize AI to turbocharge content creation capabilities to improve productivity and lower cost
Yeah, this is not gonna end well.
