  1. …This is so embarrassing I’m genuinely starting to think the heads of Paramount have a humiliation kink.

  2. If I’m selling something, and two people are interested, and I accept one offer over the other, how does it make any sense at all that the other party can sue me for not selling to them? Like how would any judge not be like “this is the stupidest thing I have ever heard in my life”?

  3. The WB shareholders are right to be concerned about selling to paramount. A 13 billion dollar company going 90 million + in debt is bad business. There would be big layoffs just to stay afloat.

    If Paramount doesn’t win they will find a way to get it to the Supreme Court I guarantee it.

    You want it all, but you can’t have it.

    It’s in your face, but you can’t grab it.
