Writers Guild Opposes Netflix's Potential Warner Brothers Acquisition
Update: 2025-12-05
Description
The Writers Guild of America, along with other industry groups, strongly opposes Netflixs potential acquisition of Warner Brothers Discoverys studios and streaming business. They argue that this $83 billion deal would lead to job losses, lower wages, higher prices for consumers, and reduced content variety. The Guild has a history of opposing media consolidation, citing concerns similar to those raised against the Comcast-NBCUniversal, Disney-Fox, and Warner Brothers-Discovery mergers. Netflix plans to maintain Warner Brothers current operations and keep HBO Max separate, but industry groups remain worried about the potential impact on jobs and the entertainment industry.
