Trump's Side Deal With 'New Owners' of Paramount May Hint at FCC Concessions
President Trump has said that he anticipates receiving at least $20 million in advertising, public service announcements or similar programming from incoming Paramount Global owner Skydance as part of a settlement to resolve a lawsuit that 60 Minutes conducted with Kamala Harris. In a Tuesday Truth Social post, Trump confirmed chatter of a side deal with the incoming Skydance regime that more than doubles the $16 million agreement that Paramount initially attached to the resolution of the case. More from The Hollywood Reporter Critic's Notebook: Ozzy Osbourne Created the Template for Reality TV Celebrity Reinvention, From Flavor Flav to Donald Trump House Republicans Vote to Rename Kennedy Center Opera House After Melania Trump The NEA Is Under Attack. If You Work in The Entertainment Industry, That Should Scare You. Trump's announcement directly clashed with Paramount's characterization of the settlement. When the deal was announced earlier this month, it said that it has 'no knowledge of any promises or commitments made to President Trump other than those set forth in the settlement.' Also on Tuesday: Lawyers for Trump and Paramount formalized the deal, with both sides moving to dismiss the lawsuit. The filing didn't include details of the settlement, unlike when ABC News reached an agreement to resolve a lawsuit from Trump over comments from Good Morning America and This Week anchor George Stephanopoulos. Per court documents, the two sides in that case explicitly laid out the terms of the deal, including timing of the payments. There's not obligation to publicly disclose the details of a settlement, though the widespread belief that Paramount would settle what was widely believed to be a frivolous lawsuit to open a pathway to regulatory approval of its merger with Skydance necessitated some degree of transparency on what the agreement looked like. Those details came directly from the company when the deal was announced close to midnight on July 1 rather than court fillings. Whether a party that's not formally a part of the litigation can participate in a settlement will be questioned. The Paramount-Skydance merger has not officially been greenlit. It's unknown whether the deal Trump announced is actually a part of his settlement with Paramount. Rather, Trump's characterization of the deal could hint at expected concessions new Paramount will have to make for the FCC to approve the transfer of the company's broadcast licenses to Skydance. Talks are already underway, with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and its Hollywood Local 399 and the conservative public interest group the Center for American Rights playing a prominent part. The latter group has called for increased viewpoint diversity, meaning more promotion of conservative perspectives. Also in play: more ideological diversity on the company's board of directors and a requirement that CBS have an 'independent, well funded, empowered, balanced ombudsman or oversight board' that would monitor for bias. David Ellison has recently held talks about acquiring The Free Press, the online publication co-founded by Bari Weiss, The New York Times reported. There's already legal blowback, with more expected down the road. The Freedom of the Press Foundation has sent to Paramount a demand for information related to its decision to settle, with plans to file a lawsuit on behalf of investors against controlling shareholder Shari Redstone and the board. Related are potential investigations by lawmakers like Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Sen. Bernie Sanders into whether Paramount violated anti-bribery laws, though there's skepticism about how those legal actions will fare absent a smoking a gun.

Paramount-Skydance Merger Approved by FCC, Clearing Way for $8 Billion Deal Close
The Federal Communications Commission has cleared the way for David Ellison's Skydance to acquire Paramount Global. The federal agency, led by Brendan Carr, said on Thursday that it approved the transfer of Paramount's broadcast licenses to Skydance, the last hurdle in the review of the $8 billion deal. More from The Hollywood Reporter 'South Park' Creators Reveal Network Battle Over Premiere's Trump Penis as They Joke: "We're Terribly Sorry" Dissenting FCC Commissioner: Paramount Chose "Capitulation Over Courage" In Dealing With Trump Paramount Co-CEO Chris McCarthy Set to Exit After Skydance Merger With the FCC approving the transfer, Skydance will be able to complete its acquisition of Paramount in short order, transforming the media landscape as Ellison takes charge of the owner of CBS, the Paramount film studio, Paramount+ and cable channels like MTV, Comedy Central and Nickelodeon. 'Americans no longer trust the legacy national news media to report fully, accurately, and fairly,' Carr said in a statement. 'It is time for a change. That is why I welcome Skydance's commitment to make significant changes at the once storied CBS broadcast network.' At the heart of the approval: potential benefits to the public through Skydance's ability to address Paramount's financial maladies. 'We find that the record indicates that the Transaction will produce some public interest benefits, including enhancing the service of the CBS television network and its owned-and-operated local television broadcast stations and revitalizing Paramount to navigate challenging economic and marketplace conditions,' stated the order. Due to economic headwinds and a shift in the consumption of media, Skydance said that Paramount's costs are untenably increasing while its traditional sources of revenue are shrinking. These challenges, it said, left Paramount with $14.6 billion in long-term debt by the end of 2023. If the merger is greenlit, it vowed to inject $1.5 billion of new capital into the company, bolstering operations and giving it a pathway to investing in news and keep popular live sports, movies and TV shows. Ultimately, the FCC agreed with Skydance that the purchase gives Paramount a pathway to emerging as a 'stronger and more vibrant competitor in the modern media landscape.' Key in this finding were the prospects of Paramount+ and PlutoTV under new leadership. 'Revitalizing the technology underlying these streaming services will help to secure their continued success, and, in turn, help stabilize and support the viability of the company's broadcast services,' the order stated. A key thesis behind the merger was plans by Ellison to expand Paramount's technological capabilities. This includes improving recommendation engines through artificial intelligence so subscribers spend more time on the platform, upgrading advertising technology to give marketers more reach and information, and the unification of cloud providers to slash costs. Also a factor: Skydance's commitment to eliminating all diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives (DEI) at the company, and to hire an ombudsman at CBS News to monitor for media bias. The transfer was approved by a 2-1 vote. In a dissent, Anna M. Gomez, a Democratic commissioner on the FCC, said the agency 'used its vast power to pressure Paramount to broker a private legal settlement and further erode press freedom. 'Even more alarming, it is now imposing never-before-seen controls over newsroom decisions and editorial judgment, in direct violation of the First Amendment and the law,' she added. The Skydance deal has been a year in the making, with Skydance and its partner RedBird Capital beating out other potential suitors last year for the asset, which was controlled by Shari Redstone and her family's National Amusements holding company. Ellison will become CEO of the combined company, with former NBCUniversal CEO Jeff Shell to become its president. The FCC approval also comes just a few weeks after Paramount settled a lawsuit brought against it by President Donald Trump, over an interview the CBS News show 60 Minutes conducted with former Vice President Kamala Harris last year. The lawsuit was settled for $16 million, though Trump later told reporters it also included free advertising connected to issues of importance to him. Paramount denied any agreement for commercials. The settlement led to resentment, anger and disgust inside CBS News, where staff were frustrated that a deal was cut over a lawsuit that they viewed as baseless, though Paramount refused to apologize over the interview and edits in question.

Dissenting FCC Commissioner: Paramount Chose 'Capitulation Over Courage' In Dealing With Trump
Though the Federal Communications Commission approved the Skydance-Paramount merger Thursday, one commissioner is speaking out against what she says has been an 'erosion of our First Amendment protections.' 'After months of cowardly capitulation to this Administration, Paramount finally got what it wanted. Unfortunately, it is the American public who will ultimately pay the price for its actions,' commissioner Anna M. Gomez said. More from The Hollywood Reporter Paramount Co-CEO Chris McCarthy Set to Exit After Skydance Merger Paramount-Skydance Merger Approved by FCC, Clearing Way for $8 Billion Deal Close 'South Park' Lives: Paramount Inks New Deal With Creators, Library Moving to Paramount+ Gomez notes that the transfer of Paramount's broadcast licenses to Skydance was approved by a vote of 2-1 at the FCC, which is led by Brendan Carr, and that she had dissented. She pointed to the 'unprecedented' moves taken by the FCC to help broker the deal, which she notes include the elimination of DEI programs and putting controls on newsroom decisions at CBS, including agreeing to appoint an ombudsman that will report directly to the president of CBS News and 'who will receive and evaluate any complaints of bias or other concerns.' On July 1, Paramount agreed to a $16 million deal to resolve a lawsuit filed by President Trump against 60 Minutes over an interview conducted with Kamala Harris. The settlement was largely seen as paving the way for the merger with Skydance. Trump has also said that he anticipates receiving at least $20 million in advertising, public service announcements or similar programming from Skydance as part of a settlement. 'In an unprecedented move, this once-independent FCC used its vast power to pressure Paramount to broker a private legal settlement and further erode press freedom. Once again, this agency is undermining legitimate efforts to combat discrimination and expand opportunity by overstepping its authority and intervening in employment matters reserved for other government entities with proper jurisdiction on these issues. Even more alarming, it is now imposing never-before-seen controls over newsroom decisions and editorial judgment, in direct violation of the First Amendment and the law,' Gomez wrote. 'After the FCC buried the outcome of backroom negotiations with other regulated entities, like Verizon and T-Mobile, I urged for us to bring the Paramount proceeding into the light. I've long believed the public has a right to know how Paramount's capitulation evidences an erosion of our First Amendment protections, and I'm pleased that FCC leadership ultimately agreed to my call for every Commissioner to vote on this transaction. Granting approval behind closed doors, under the cover of bureaucratic process, would have been an inappropriate way to shield this Administration's coordinated campaign to censor speech, control narratives, and silence dissent,' she continued. 'Despite this regrettable outcome, this Administration is not done with its assault on the First Amendment. In fact, it may only be beginning. The Paramount payout and this reckless approval have emboldened those who believe the government can—and should—abuse its power to extract financial and ideological concessions, demand favored treatment, and secure positive media coverage. It is a dark chapter in a long and growing record of abuse that threatens press freedom in this country. But such violations endure only when institutions choose capitulation over courage. It is time for companies, journalists, and citizens alike to stand up and speak out, because unchecked and unquestioned power has no rightful place in America,' Gomez wrote.
