A miracle.What is it gonna take to get rid of Zaslav?????
I believe they are going to put most Discovery content on Discovery+.Huh? Discovery is removing its own shows from its network? I watch Ghost Adventures on Trvl and they're right in the middle of a new season. Am I missing something?

I guess I'm the guy you're talking about? I have only pointed out when you post things that aren't accurate. There is nothing that I have disputed with you that I've ever been wrong about. You have posted several links with opinions from people, but they don't make them fact. Again, I have the actual information in this case. For example, in this case your post is not accurate. The downgrade mentioned above has nothing to do with the WBD stock it is for their bonds. 1 of the 3 rating agencies downgraded (S&P), the other two (Moody's and Fitch) still list it at investment grade. This was foreshadowed by the negative outlook they put on Warners back in the Fall.Post this here, Warner Discovery stock down graded to junk status

S&P Downgrades Warner Bros. Discovery To Junk Status On “Weak Credit Metrics” That Would Get Worse If Company Splits
S&P downgraded Warner Bros. Discovery to junk status amid revenue and cash flow declines at linear TV. networks. It said a split in two wouldn't help.deadline.com
Yet, not one link proving your point.I guess I'm the guy you're talking about? I have only pointed out when you post things that aren't accurate. There is nothing that I have disputed with you that I've ever been wrong about.
Only $11.9m of that is in China where only about 55% goes back to the studio.
Under a trade agreement established in 2012, the U.S. studios are entitled to only 25 percent of box office sales revenue for their films opening in China.
No $#@!Why is my head spinning?
That is just another Cinemax channel, 5 Star MAX.The discovery crime ch. is my most-watched.
Meanwhile, I switched the DiSH guide over to "all ch's" to check out the current "premiums" that always started at 300. Now they don't start until like 308, but there's one ch. of Cinemax, 2 of HBO (e&w), also showtime & TMC just as of old, but there's something new stuck in the middle of all that called "5 star" which appears to run relatively newer movies.
Why is my head spinning?
Or to even want them...No sh*t. This couldn't be any more confusing. It's like these companies want to make it as difficult as possible just to find the damn show you want to watch.
100% certain the spin off will not happen?Neither of your last two paragraphs are accurate. I'm 100% certain. Nor does it make any sense as the majority of their cash comes from the linear networks and there would be no reason to cut off that cash flow stream. It also goes completely against what they said in their earnings call last week about the importance of the linear business and the slowing of losses there or their recently announced new linear carriage deals with both Comcast and Charter. Finally, they didn't eliminate their new scripted content as they showed multiple programs at their upfront presentation today (including the next iterations of the Librarians series).
The first paragraph is unlikely since 1) there is no actual announced spin off 2) most importantly, internationally HBO is being reported with the global linear networks segment as laid out in their Q1 10-Q.
Kicking more debt down the road. WBD is a disaster that is getting worse instead of better.WBD also said on Monday it launched tender offers to restructure its existing debt, funded by a $17.5 billion bridge facility provided by J.P. Morgan.
Dude, never said it wouldn't happen. What I said was that it was not a deal that was done as your two paragraphs stated. I can tell you that I was in the room when it was decided and it was AFTER this post. Period. Believe what you want, but at the time of posting it was 100% undecided and could have gone either way.100% certain the spin off will not happen?
Once again, I am correct-
The David Zaslav-led conglom will divide between Streaming & Studios and Global Networks.
Zaslav will lead Streaming & Studios while CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels takes on the President and CEO fo Global Networks role. Both will continue in their present roles at WBD until the separation.

Then this-Probably will have to be, since they are spinning off the cable channels into a new company, except HBO.
I know you think you have full knowledge here. Trust me I have better knowledge on this specific subject than you do. That doesn't mean a transaction is in the works. But to assume that something is being spun off is just not correct.
You are Monday morning posting with the above, all of a sudden you do know, yet leaving up all those posts were you said I was incorrect.I can tell you that I was in the room when it was decided and it was AFTER this post.

NDAs are weird like that.You are Monday morning posting with the above, all of a sudden you do know, yet leaving up all those posts were you said I was incorrect.
