    The elder Ellison is covering most of the cash to close the Skydance-Paramount merger, which will give him significant control over the new company and a chance to carry out, as he detailed in federal filings, a wholesale transformation of CBS in his vision—including broadcasts of complimentary PSAs for Trump administration initiatives.

    Goddamn it.

    There was nothing quiet about that merger. But I’m betting far-right/alt-right Star Trek will be awesome. 😐
