Oregon Targets Paramount Over Warner Bros. Deal
8 Jul
Summary
- Oregon AG seeks court order for Paramount compliance.

- Paramount aims to close Warner Bros. deal after July 16.

Oregon's Attorney General has initiated legal proceedings, aiming to secure a court order forcing Paramount to cooperate with investigative demands related to its acquisition of Warner Bros. This action stems from the state's inquiry into Paramount's lobbying activities with the Trump administration concerning the merger.
