The fate of Warner Bros. Discovery could hinge on a frequent subject of President Trump’s ire: CNN.
President Trump told reporters at the White House on Wednesday that the ownership of CNN should change regardless of which company buys Warner and that it is “imperative that CNN be sold.”
Behind the scenes in recent days, Trump has repeatedly told allies that CNN should either be sold or get new leadership, according to people familiar with the matter, even if Netflix’s proposal is approved. The president has been unwavering in meetings with allies about his position on CNN and he has connected its future to deal negotiations with Warner Bros., the people said.
