IN THE NEWS

Paramount Global has a new suitor: Apex Capital Trust has submitted an all-cash offer of up to $43 billion to purchase the company. The offer comes after National Amusements agreed to a deal with Skydance, but before the expiration of its “go-shop” window on August 21. “Paramount and its assets are a national treasure, and we intend to treat them accordingly,” said Tatiana Logan, General Counsel for Apex Trust. “Paramount’s global future is bright, but it requires resources, which we have and are enthusiastic to deploy, making it a win-win situation for all of Paramount’s stakeholders.” Apex’s offer includes a $400 million breakup fee for the Skydance investor group.

Netflix has acknowledged that its hit “true story” series “Baby Reindeer” isn’t so true after all – turns out Scottish lawyer Fiona Harvey, on whom stalker character Martha is based, was not convicted of stalking, as the character is in the show. While the writer of “Baby Reindeer” endured serious harassment, said Netflix, “the person on whom the show is based — who we have at no point sought to identify — was subject to a court order rather than a conviction.” As reported by Deadline, the admission came in a letter to British Parliament’s Culture, Media and Sport Committee.

Layoffs were underway at Disney Entertainment Television yesterday, affecting about 140 people, or 2% of DET’s employees. National Geographic lost about 60 employees, or 13% of staff. The cuts were part of a long-planned streamlining strategy at Disney.

The US Copyright Office released Part 1 of its report on the legal and policy issues related to copyright and artificial intelligence, recommending that Congress enact a new federal law that protects individuals from the knowing distribution of unauthorized digital replicas. “It has become clear that the distribution of unauthorized digital replicas poses a serious threat not only in the entertainment and political arenas but also for private citizens. We believe there is an urgent need for effective nationwide protection against the harms that can be caused to reputations and livelihoods,” said Shira Perlmutter, Register of Copyrights and Director of the US Copyright Office. “We look forward to working with Congress as they consider our recommendations and evaluate future developments.”

Jessica Dean has been named anchor of the primetime weekend edition of “CNN Newsroom,” in addition to serving as a political correspondent. Also earning a promotion at the news net is Donie O’Sullivan, who as senior correspondent will continue to report on the role of disinformation in the 2024 election.
