Before the second Trump era, it would’ve been seen as a ridiculous violation of the First Amendment to have some kind of monitor making sure the media was being nice to the president.

No. No, it is ridiculous. Don’t pretend it’s fine.

I hope Matt Stone and Trey Parker create no end of shit for Paramount/CBS.

RIP America.

With the multi-billion-dollar deal they just signed, Paramount loses no matter what.

I love it.

[–] krashmo@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, those billions of dollars are sure to cause untold sadness among the shareholders.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I'm referring to the deal Trey an Matt just signed. Firing them will cost billions.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 13 points 1 day ago

They won't fire them. Trump will just ignore any satire that they throw his... lol, no, he won't. I don;t know how this will go. That's a lot to write off by firing. This could get ugly and go beyond just political and business dealings. "Will someone rid me of these cartoon guys?"

They signed a streaming deal. Cancelling the show order would have no impact on that deal whatsoever.

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago

Part of the deal included 50 new episodes.

[–] fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Which means they get the money but Paramount gets no show to profit from

[–] Microw@piefed.zip 1 points 17 hours ago

Yes, Paramount would get no new episodes to profit from, but they would still have the entire backcatalogue to profit from until the timeframe for this deal ends
