I mean, I get it but the only people bidding on WBD was Skydance (Ellison). The options were Skydance, Disney, a vulture fund, or Netflix. That's probably why Netflix even decided to bid. Nobody wanted WBD.

Consolidation should have never been allowed, but now that the beast that is Disney exists, there is very little argument that could succeed against the WBD purchase.

ITS SKYDANCE/ and the saudis.
