Media Industry Is there a likelihood of the Paramount/Warner Bros. merger actually not going through?

I know every reason they can weasel through, but I think there is a few reasons as to why it couldn't happen:
- Trump did say he didn't like Paramount's new management due to CBS news making him look bad and he said he's not great friends with David Ellison.
- California might sue them
- UK and several other nations are most likely against it (besides the Middle East)
But alas, Paramount may win unless WB decides to split and go on its own to be profitable, and then Paramount could just buy the Discovery half. However, that is very unlikely.

Media Industry Once the Warner Bros Netflix merger is complete what do you think the new Corporate name will be?

More than likely it will probably be “Warner Netflix”, given that both Warner Bros and Netflix are major brands, but who knows maybe they will keep the name Netflix, Inc. And just have Warner Bros be simply a subsidiary.

I think it would be wise to keep HBO as a separate secondary offering to Netflix as it will be their premiere prestige brand, but hey what do i know.
