Media Regulation News: Paramount-CNN Oversight, ABC Editorial Changes, and FCC Actions

Paramount Skydance has considered creating an oversight body for CNN as part of its proposed merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, according to Variety. The deal has stalled in federal court after 12 attorneys general raised antitrust concerns. House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin has requested a transcribed interview with Paramount CEO David Ellison to answer questions about the merger. The company's consideration of an editorial board for CNN has drawn scrutiny from Democrats who oppose the deal.
