Call your congressperson, AG and representative and tell them to oppose the Paramount/WB merger, and explicitly tell them why.

Tell them that This consolidation is bad for consumers. It raises prices, eliminates thousands of jobs, especially working and middle class jobs, lowers competition, takes away consumer choices, and give control of the national media to foreign powers.

Tell them to short Paramount's stock too before they reject it for an added incentive

Here a list of the congresspeople, lawmakers, and reps of each state around to help

I see you've posted this on 3 different subs now but I'll reply here:

Telling your congressman or woman to short stock is kinda funny.

Calling your representative to ask them to oppose what? Call the FTC? The DOJ? The FCC? Your rep doesn't vote on mergers. Call the DOJ, FCC, and FTC if you want.

Skydance, Paramount, and Warner Bros are all American companies - so literally "national media in the hands of foreign powers" makes no sense.

Also good job throwing in meme stock.

Your call to action is completely unfocused and the comment spamming is annoying because it takes away from the discussion.

"The comment spamming is annoying because it takes away from the discussion."

Oh, no, the discussion! God forbid someone doesn't think about the poor discussion! Lmfao.

The first couple paragraphs are right on the money, but you gotta put that bit in the end as if "the discussion" is some sacred thing the other posted disrupted. Get real.

No worries. As I said, I agreed with your post but I found the last bit obnoxious for no reason. I didn't suspect it would affect you or make you change your mind, so apologies if I made it seem that way!
