US state attorneys general move to block $110bn Paramount-WBD merger

Multiple US state attorneys general are preparing a landmark antitrust lawsuit to stop the $110 billion merger between Paramount Skydance and Warner Bros. Discovery, with the case expected to hit courts on Monday. They allege the deal would eliminate competition in the media market. Threats have also emerged that David Ellison's Paramount Skydance could leave California in retaliation.
