""There's no question about it," Trump said, answering questions about the deal and various other topics as he walked the red carpet at the Kennedy Center Honors."
""Netflix is a great company. They've done a phenomenal job. Ted is a fantastic man," he said of Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos, noting that they met in the Oval Office last week before the deal was announced Dec. 5. "I have a lot of respect for him but it's a lot of market share, so we'll have to see what happens.""
""They have a very big market share and when they have Warner Bros., you know, that share goes up a lot so, I don't know," he said. "I'll be involved in that decision, too. But they have a very big market share""
A $72 billion deal would combine Netflix with Warner Bros. Discovery, merging two major streaming services and adding Warner's television, motion picture divisions and DC Studios to Netflix's library and production arm. The transaction would significantly increase the combined market share in the streaming and entertainment industries and requires regulatory approval. The federal government and regulators will review the merger for approval and potential antitrust issues. Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos met with the president before the announcement and made no guarantees about the merger. Approval could reshape the entertainment landscape if permitted.
