Investors voted with their pockets, and the merger with Paramount clears another hurdle.

A few months ago, conservatives were very worried that Warner Bros.-Discovery would be bought by the ultra-woke people at Netflix, taking the already decadent film industry into an even deeper leftist purgatory of bad movies with nefarious subliminal messages.

But that was not to be, as Paramount swooped in and made a much better financial offer for the studio, literally saving the day like a hero from one of their movies.

To no one’s surprise, a large group of Hollywood leftists came out in force trying to impede the deal, but they were not successful.

Yesterday, it emerged that Warner Bros’ investors have backed Paramount’s takeover, bringing the $111bn deal a step closer.
