About this episode
In a surprise move, AT&T has announced a $43 billion deal to merge WarnerMedia with Discovery Inc. Joe, Becky, and Andrew digest the news and what it means for media, from Hollywood to Wall Street. Media watcher and LightShed Partners co-founder Richard Greenfield considers content and business possibilities for the new entity and explains how he sees the deal affecting HBO Max and Discovery Plus subscribers. Plus, the “new” normal is finally on its way: former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb says that by June, most Americans won’t be wearing masks, and vaccinated people have very little reason to continue wearing them.
