People always get laid off with these huge mergers. Most everything else reported on has been false. including that they were gonna just call the service "Discovery+"

Stan war losers just want something to be "right" about

Just because it hasn’t happened yet doesn’t mean that it won’t happen long term. There’s a reason why you don’t trust what people say at an investors meeting.

Why they taking uncle grandpa and ok ko? Then shyts was on for a few years.

There's probably some way to save money... that new CEO vowed to save a few billion towards the debt immediately..

People need to realize..

NOBODY is profitable during the streaming wars yet. Netflix shares are down 70%. Disney shares are down 35% and they just LOST a billion dollars on streaming last quarter. Disney announced the price now gonna be $11.99 for the service. A $3/month price jump.

These companies need to do everything they can..

They can do all that and they still aren’t going to be profitable. It’s the reason a lot of us have been saying that the streaming option just isn’t financially feasible long term and why we will end up with cable all over again.

Residuals. Apparently when a show is streaming, residuals are paid based on the number of subscribers the streamer has.

Taking off the titles from streaming would also help Warner Bros. Discovery cut costs by removing lesser-watched programs to save money on residuals. An exact date or time when the titles will be taken off has not been announced.
