- "A group of Democratic senators, unhappy with Paramount CEO David Ellison’s refusal to appear at a hearing two weeks ago over the brewing takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery, are ratcheting up the pressure."
- "Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer — along with Sens. Cory Booker, D-N.J., Dick Durbin, D-Ill.; Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.; Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass.; and Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii — accused Ellison Thursday of a “pattern of evasion” and asked the billionaire to preserve all communications involving President Donald Trump, his family members, lobbyists, and Justice Department staff related to Paramount’s pursuit of Warner Bros., according to a letter from Booker’s office viewed by Semafor."
