The alternative would be Trump preventing this deal from moving forward and basically giving Warner-Bros Discovery to Skydance/Paramount, further consolidating the media under right-wing billionaire Larry Ellison. I think I'd rather Netflix own WBD.

Still can. CNN and other television networks will be split into a separate company as Netflix is not interested in that part of the business. That company will be put for sale as soon as the deal finalizes.
