Paramount, Skydance hit back after critics slam pending merger's potential liberal bias, foreign influence

The article discusses the backlash and defense surrounding the potential merger between Paramount Global and Skydance Media.

In response, Paramount and Skydance have defended the merger, arguing that it would enhance Paramount's content creation capabilities and global reach, while dismissing claims of political bias or undue foreign influence as unfounded. They emphasize that the merger aims to strengthen Paramount's position in the competitive entertainment industry, focusing on creative and financial benefits rather than political agendas.
