It’s almost like we should have a government agency that exists to prevent monopolies from forming
Make Anti-trust laws Great Again
No one is going to a movie theater to watch a stale “adult drama” that’s a Lifetime movie with swearing.
No one even knew this movie existed before it came out
Okay, so the Ellison family wants to own absolutely every media organization. Even monopoly has the risk of "go to jail"... Not here though.
Netflix will just give Trump a fake peace prize to secure the deal
Paramount has already sucked ass with trump successfully.
No more monopolies
Krystal’s late 60s hairstyle looks pretty cool.
Paramount would be even a larger risk of monopoly
