IN THE NEWS

Paramount Global made it official Monday afternoon, with the announcement that CEO Bob Bakish is out. George Cheeks, President and CEO of CBS; Chris McCarthy, President and CEO, Showtime/MTV Entertainment Studios and Paramount Media Networks; and Brian Robbins, President and CEO of Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon, will comprise the Office of the CEO. “The creation of the Office of the CEO will enable the Company to accelerate growth and strengthen operations. We look forward to working with George, Chris and Brian as they execute on key initiatives to enhance performance and value creation at Paramount Global,” said Board of Directors CFO Naveen Chopra. But how will the new leaders get along? “We’re true partners,” said McCarthy in remarks during the company’s earnings call, adding they have “a deep respect for each other.”

As for those quarterly earnings results – on the streaming front, Paramount+ subscribers topped 71 million, with 3.7 million net additions in the quarter, and streaming losses narrowed to $288 million from $510 in the year-ago period. Advertising revenue rose 17% with a Super Bowl boost. “It was a record-setting quarter for Paramount+ in engagement and revenue, and in the DTC segment as we continued to substantially narrow streaming losses,” said Naveen Chopra. “CBS dominated with its powerful combination of sports and the return of a delayed fall slate that launched to massive audiences. As we look ahead, we remain focused on execution and transforming our cost base to best position Paramount for the future.”

In what it described as its best and final offer, Skydance, which has been talking merger with Paramount for months, sweetened the deal with at $3 billion cash infusion that can be used to pay down debt and buy back stock, reports The New York Times. Skydance also offered to give Paramount shareholders a larger stake in the combined company, a change aimed at assuaging investors who objected to a deal they felt prioritized the interests of controlling shareholder Shari Redstone over others.

Gray Television continued its rollout of NextGen TV in its markets with several key initiatives to advance the transition and bring more of the benefits of the new standard to viewers in Gray’s local communities. Among other consumer benefits, NextGen allows broadcasters to deliver superior picture quality and immersive sound. “For many years, broadcasters have been promising to use NextGen TV to bring superior picture quality and immersive sound to viewers,” said Pat LaPlatney, Gray’s president and co-CEO. “Gray is proud to be among a handful of leading broadcasters who are now delivering on that promise. Our stations in Louisville and Las Vegas are just the beginning of Gray’s efforts to launch more of its NextGen TV stations with these innovative, consumer-pleasing features throughout the summer and into the fall.”

One America News Network has retracted a March 27 story that said former Donald Trump lawyer Michael Cohen had an affair with porn star Stormy Daniels, and apologized for “any harm the publication may have caused him.” The retraction is part of a settlement deal with Cohen, who said, “The notion that right before the election I would extort the man I fervently supported and believed was about to become president, all to make $130,000 that I did not even keep for myself, is beyond absurd. It’s just plain stupid.”

The British are coming! The BBC is planning multi-platform coverage of the 2024 US Presidential Election, including live coverage and in-depth analysis across BBC.com and the BBC app, the BBC News channel, newsletters, and audio platforms. The organization announced the launch of BBC Verify US, a dedicated unit to counter disinformation in the run up to Election Day. “In this critical election year, the BBC will rise above the divides to deliver even more of our unique brand of trusted news across new platforms and in new formats,” said Deborah Turness, CEO of BBC News. “Where disinformation brings chaos and confusion, the BBC will bring clarity and accuracy, facts not opinion, analysis consumers can trust. We are investing in the tools, techniques, and talent to combat fake news.”
