Bezos (Amazon) buys MGM which means....

He owns the apprentice outtakes. Ha ha. Also means Amazon continues to grow their content to manage.



Amazon Agrees to Buy MGM Film Studio for $8.45 Billion
Amazon.com Inc. agreed to buy the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer movie company for $8.45 billion, a bet that a nearly century-old Hollywood icon can feed an insatiable demand for streaming content.

The proliferation of streaming services, including newer arrivals such as HBO Max and Disney+, has put pressure on Amazon to acquire more programming. Chief Executive Officer Jeff Bezos has made no secret of his desire for movie moguldom, and MGM’s vast backlog provides an abundance of streaming material, not to mention an opportunity to mine the iconic James Bond and Rocky franchises for new films and television shows.

Moreover, with retail rivals like Walmart Inc. rolling out more sophisticated online stores, Amazon must work even harder to keep its 200 million Prime subscribers loyal.

and it also means bezos and corp. america gets richer and more powerful while the rest of up get poorer,,

I remember the days when dems were against all this type of wealth and power,

oh how times change,,

Where are you seeing "Democrats" in this story, you fucking moron?

Who is rooting for corporate dominance? My comment on content consolidation wasn’t in support of it. Fewer content distributors makes competition drop.

you seemed pleased with it,,,

Progressive hunter is a fucking idiot who sees Evil Democrats everywhere he looks because he's been brainwashed by people like Rush, Sean and Glenn - three dumbasses who didn't, or barely finished, high school.
 
Doesn’t matter. I don’t subscribe to Amazon Prime,order anything from their crappy company and I haven’t been to a movie in over a year. Big whoop.
I admire this post, if true. I do subscribe to Prime, and watch content on their streaming channel. I would like to purchase less from Amazon but there are not many good options.

As long as you throw money at the Democrats, they will like you. Trump proved that for years.

This shouldn't be allowed to happen.

Amazon owns way too much in America.

This is what happens when business is deregulated.

We need to go back to the regulations we had on business consolidation and mass ownership we had before the reagan years.

No one should be this filthy rich. Especially while the gap between the rich and poor keeps getting wider.

This isn't something to celebrate.

Holy shit... That's twice we agree on something... Whole heartedly... Please don't fuck it up in the very next post this time.

Yes it's exactly the result of unregulated capitalism.

Improperly regulated capitalism creates monopolies. Which destroys competition and innovation.

Improperly regulated capitalism destroys economies.

Or its the result of shutting down all businesses where you go to buy things so the top uberrich one percenter Dimmers can have it all

We warned Republicans about this. They still rammed through the exemption for taxes on internet purchases. Clinton shouldn't have signed it, but he was in a bad political position.

The AG of DC filed an anti-trust lawsuit against them this week I think.

I don't know if $8.5 billion is a good price for the studios/catalog, but if it also includes the casinos it's a downright steal.

Ok, I guess not. This is from early 2020:

Mandalay Bay, MGM Grand casinos sell for $4.6B

By Noah Manskar
January 14, 2020 | 1:52pm | Updated


MGM Resorts International’s MGM Grand and Mandalay Bay casino properties are being sold for $4.6 billion in a deal involving private equity giant Blackstone Group.

A new joint venture between the Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust and MGM Growth Properties will buy the splashy Las Vegas Strip complexes, which have more than 9,700 hotel rooms and about 300,000 square feet of casino space combined, the companies said.

MGM Resorts currently owns the MGM Grand property, while MGM Growth Properties owns Mandalay Bay’s real estate, according to a news release.

The joint venture will lease the properties to MGM Resorts, which will continue to operate and manage them — meaning nothing should change day-to-day for gamblers and guests. The annual rent for the properties will start at $292 million, according to MGM Growth Properties.

MGM Growth Properties — a real estate investment trust largely owned by MGM Resorts — will own 50.1 percent of the joint venture, while Blackstone’s real estate trust will have a 49.9 percent stake. The Blackstone trust will also buy $150 million worth of shares in MGM Growth Properties, the news release said. The deal is expected to close in the first quarter of this year.

Yeah... OK... Whatever... Democrats have the big chair and numbers needed. Will they go after them? Should they go after them?
