Let’s check where much of the ownership and money come from. From the LA Times:

> The Federal Communications Commission on Thursday granted Paramount Skydance’s request to allow Middle Eastern royal families to hold a substantial stake in a merged Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery.

> Foreign investors, including the sovereign wealth funds of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Abu Dhabi, are slated to indirectly own nearly 50% of the equity in David Ellison’s proposed mega-studio. That will give them a hefty stake in CBS, CNN, Comedy Central, HBO and two historic Hollywood film studios.

So foreign “adversaries” literally own enormous stakes in these companies and have been cleared by the FCC. Yet only possible pro-Israel influence by Ellison gets called out?

When they take dollars for oil, they would rather swap paper currency with real assets (ownership of firms). If US doesn't want that, they should make moves to remove USD as a reserve currency or preferred currency for global trade.

The entertainment industry is the opiate for the American masses. It has paramount power to deceive and beguile and distract, especially the middle class. Entertainment outlets are the prime propaganda mouthpieces for their sponsors. When their sponsor is not the domestic government, they serve as corporate propaganda and foreigner propaganda. American public broadcasting delenda est. So shut up and enjoy your Netflix.

Out of those 3, one is a covert ally of Israel and the other is an overt ally. David and Larry Ellison are avowed Zionists.

		Of course they are. The entertainment industry has been since the Hays Code died. 1/3rd of actors are Israelites, 1/3rd of producers are Hebrews, and 1/3rd of directors are Zionists. The Warner Brothers themselves were all of the above. That is simply who calls the shots in the industry. My hypothesis? This situation is exactly what Senator Joseph McCarthy was warning us about, and tried to stop. But he could not say the real reason or the real ideologies out loud during the Cold War, after we won over Germany. He could only fight with "proxy lawfare" against the growing influence.

Please. Ellison controls it, the gulf states are just investors. They also invested in Twitter, but people call out Elon, and no one has a problem with that.

Most of the gulf states are pretty much controlled by Zionists at this point anyway, or at least heavily aligned with them.

Naturally. Because OP isn't going to let pesky facts interfere with his narrative.

What about the pesky fact that there is a huge difference between the operational owner of a company and it's investors. Oh and those gulf state investors are aligned with the Zionists.

Of course they are. Who isn't? The Taliban?

		Stating obvious falsehoods as if they were true doesn't help your Zionist cause anymore. It's not only the Taliban and everyone knows it, so don't bother gaslighting. Just look at half of Eurpope. Or the Ed Sheeran debacle.
