Also while no new cuts are made, Zaslav is promising them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OwlChemist81 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 So you do a sub-par job with your network and get rewarded!? Hopefully they'll sell WBD again soon. I hope this time Sony's buying! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this time Sony's buying! No, what they're saying is that their primary goal is to reduce the big debt number that's been hanging over Warner. The more cash on hand and the less debt, the more pay they get. It's an incentive to deal with their big problem and make the company profitable. The problem is that Zaslav's preferred way to do that seems to be to cut content. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
