Warner Bros. Discovery and NBCUniversal could merge by Early 2024. [UPDATE]
UPDATE [9-28-22]: So, it's been confirmed by WBD's CEO himself, David Zaslav, that any kind of talks about a merger with NBCUniversal or any other company will not happen. This is what Zaslav had to say on the subject:
We are not for sale...We have everything we need to be successful.
On that matter, the original post will still be preserved for you all to read.

[9-16-22] You read the title correctly. According to some analysts, Warner Bros. Discovery could fold itself to NBCUniversal as early as April 2024 after they're done with their corporate restructuring (or cancelling a bunch of projects to cut $50 billion in debt).
Okay, that may not be a lot to take in, but the idea itself is already a very, very big sign that maybe, just maybe, this is a bad idea even on hindsight.
And the reason why this is bad is already written on there: Monopolization.
How in the fuck have some of these executives not realized that the Disney-Fox acquisition is a sign on what not to do in film business? And I'm saying some because there are a few heads from some companies who don't like this idea, with one even saying, "It's going to be so depressing to lose another major studio [after Disney bought Fox]. And Warners was the Tiffany studio."
I already made an entire article about the Disney-Fox acquisition and how it tainted my respect for Disney as a whole up to that point, so I'm not going into full detail about this. But to sum it up to WBD and NBCU, don't do what Disney did, it'll guarantee a huge fuck-up in the long-run, and it'll look incredibly bad on both of your images in history books in the next couple of decades.
That's all I have to say on this subject, I'll talk to you all next time.
