    It makes sense once you consider Paramount is in limbo until a merger with Skydance, run by David Ellison, the son of right-wing billionaire Larry Ellison.

    David Ellison may be more liberal and has apparently donated to democratic candidates more often than republicans. But you can imagine the direction coming down from high-up CBS positions to not engage in anything that may look partisan.

    it’s just a shame that the right has convinced anyone that “verifiable reality” is partisan.

      All that these billionaire unwashed assholes care about are their tax cuts.

        You know how for years the billionaires have said if the tax environment is too onerous they will leave? Well now’s the time for them to get taxed or go. Like, what does a country really want billionaires for anymore?
