9/12 Fan backlash has been GIGANTIC. We’ve seen the petitions, the billboard trucks at the Oscars, and the #SaveWBD movement. We aren't just "consumers"—we are the caretakers of cinematic history. We won't watch another library get "shelved" for a tax write-off. 🎞️🔥
The DOJ and California AG are circling. With labor unions and antitrust advocates fighting this, the risk of the deal collapsing—or being saddled with impossible concessions—is huge. Is a "junk" rated merger really the "superior proposal"? Demand better. ✊ #SaveWBD #StopTheMerger
1/ Today, while the stars walk the red carpet, a mobile billboard is circling the Dolby Theatre. It’s not an ad for a movie—it’s a protest against the $111B Paramount-Warner Bros. Discovery merger. The message? Stop the "Media Colossus." #Oscars #SaveWBD #ParamountMerger
1/ Tonight’s #Oscars celebrate the best of cinema, but the $111B Paramount-WBD merger threatens its very future. We are calling on $WBD shareholders to VOTE NO on the March 20 special meeting. 🗳️🚫 #SaveWBD #NoParamountMerger
1/ Today, as the industry celebrates at the #Oscars, we need to talk about the shadow hanging over the Dolby Theatre: the Paramount-WBD merger. This isn't just business; it’s the end of Hollywood as we know it. 🛑 #NoToParamountWBD #SaveWBD
Don't let a "Superior Proposal" mask a disastrous monopoly. Shareholders: Vote NO on March 20. Protect the craft, not just the Ellison payout. 🎬

Post 1: The Hook
🚨 CALL TO ACTION: WBD shareholders are voting on the Paramount-Warner Bros merger on March 20. This deal could lead to massive industry consolidation, debt risks, and fewer choices for fans. We need to tell the big institutional owners to vote NO. 🧵 (1/x) #SaveWBD #ParamountWarner
Think streaming is expensive now? Paramount plans to merge Max and Paramount+ into one "Mega-App." Projected cost: $30-33/month. That’s more than the separate apps cost today. We are literally paying for their debt. 💸📉 (2/4) #StreamerGouge #SaveWBD
THE REAL COST:
❌ Fewer original shows
❌ Thousands of layoffs
❌ CNN & CBS under one roof
The DOJ needs to block the #ParamountWBD merger. We shouldn't pay more for less competition. 🚫📺
#StopTheMerger #Antitrust #StreamerGouge #SaveWBD
Paramount + Warner Bros = A mountain of debt and a monopoly on our watchlists. No thanks. Let the DOJ know this merger is a 'no' from the fans. 🍿❌ #StopTheMerger #SaveWBD #WGAStrong
