A top Netflix boss has called out President Donald Trump’s “unusual” behavior in the lead-up to the streaming giant’s failed takeover of Warner Bros.
Netflix wanted to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery until it was outbid by Paramount Skydance and its Trumpy CEO, David Ellison.The 43-year-old, who is the son of Oracle’s billionaire co-founder Larry Ellison, out-powered the Netflix package by putting together a bid with the backing of the sovereign wealth funds of Abu Dhabi, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.
His push coincided with a secret MAGA plot to portray Netflix as a left-wing indoctrination machine. If the deal goes through, Ellison is expected to modify left-leaning network CNN, which is under the Warner Bros. umbrella, like he did when he installed MAGA-curious opinion journalist Bari Weiss as the head of CBS News.
