Netflix trying to "poison regulators" about WBD merger, Paramount lawyer claims
Paramount Skydance alleges Netflix is attempting to influence regulators and stakeholders against its proposed merger with Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) through a 'scorched-earth campaign.' Makan Delrahim, Paramount's chief legal officer and a former assistant attorney general, sent a letter to the DOJ's Antitrust Division responding to concerns raised by the Teamsters union about job impacts from the merger.
