It is going to depend on when they knew they were going to force the switch. If they knew internally they were going to do it a year ago then issues, if they figured they might need to do it but nothing was finalized then not really a legal issue.
Business have the right to change.
the problem they would have is if the ads guarnenteed or implied a lifetime of the such services.

His show was costing over $100 million a year, higher than competators, with him getting over $15 million. the total cost and the lack of money he was bring in from ads was low, means that the the show was a money loss.
But sure the colored man got him removed, keep believing your conspiracy garbage.

One only needs to look at Hollywood when major players consolidate, the immediate shock does not just leave a passive vacuum, it actively triggers a "creative fragmentation", where experienced talent and abandoned mid-market budgets migrate outward, giving rise to highly innovative, independent competitors like A24 or Blumhouse that otherwise might never have found a foothold.
At the same time we can look at other examples that the same people who are blocking this merger got their wish. If the proposed $3.8 billion buyout of Spirit Airlines by JetBlue had not been blocked by federal regulators in early 2024, the budget carrierâ(TM)s infrastructure, routes, and brand would likely still exist today under a consolidated corporate umbrella. Instead, left independent but financially vulnerable and unable to absorb rising operating costs, Spirit ended up filing for bankruptcy twice before officially ceasing all operations on May 2, 2026, when its reorganization plans collapsed and federal bailout negotiations failed.
This reality highlights the double-edged sword of antitrust intervention: while blocking the merger was intended to protect low-fare competition, it ultimately left Spirit to drown on its own, completely removing its discount seats from the sky. The same thing these people want to happen in another industry.

Roku's integration with subscription services is a disaster. Of the 3 subscriptions to streaming services that I've purchased through Roku, every single one has had major problems.

One deauthed me and I was never able to log back in. Roku said I had a subscription, the streaming service claimed I did not. Had to get a refunded and purchase through the streaming service.

One refused to cancel after I was done. Roku claimed that I didn't purchase it through them, even though I could prove I did easily with the billing statements.

One charged me twice what the streaming service's rate was. I contacted Roku to be told I had been placed on an upgraded plan, even though that wasn't what I ordered. I sent them the pdf receipt to prove it. They finally fixed it and 'refunded' the money.

They are a disaster.

Where they say it's a small usage compared to US water usage. By that measure..... New York doesn't use much water either. But what they're doing - especially in areas they pull from the aquifer, CANNOT be "replenished". It takes ~30 years for water to filter all the way through the clay layers, and it does that in very limited quantities. Fuck you google. You loose all credibility when you start off with a gross misrepresentation.

Maybe. Isn't it likely that the randomness in particle physics stems from us still not understanding fuck-all about how they actually behave? Feel like a caveman looking the weather and claiming it's random.

Ok. So chalk you up as someone who doesn't understand whataboutism. Got it. This is ALL republicans. There's no what-about in there. From start to finish - this is them not only catering to big business, but directly HANDING them money.

Say nothing as their "small government" party has our Federal Government purchasing private companies that compete with other private companies. Certainly won't be a conflict of interest there. Where are the screams of communism?

So Microsoft has hired on a guy who bought into the Metaverse stupidity.... and they expect him to lead their Xbox resurgence.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

No joke - our large company now uses a "Human Capital Management" system for things like pay. I can't believe they didn't understand how demeaning that is. More likely they just don't care.

False. Ebola patients can begin shedding virus loads before they have obvious outward symptoms. And medical professionals don't magically mask and glove up with respirators every time someone who is sick enters their office. You make it sound simple when it isn't.

So.... the political guy with the info, let's say Trump's advisor, talks to his friend and says "create an account, and bet on this". The friend does it ONCE. There is NO way to prove he didn't get lucky, unless you have record of the conversation.

Rinse, repeat, with different friends.

This AI will only be able to catch patterns of repeat inside traders.... and those folks are stupid enough that they'll be caught anyway. Unless they just make a new account each time with different credentials so there isn't any pattern at all. Sigh.

Look into the hybrid configurations. You get the insane torque of the electric motors, with great gas mileage and long ranges.

Gonna shill a bit:
The 2026 Ford F-150 Hybrid, known as the PowerBoostâ Full Hybrid V6, offers a best-in-class 578 lb-ft of torque and 430 horsepower, providing 11,600 lbs of towing capacity. It is available on higher trims (XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum) and features Pro Power Onboard, turning the truck into a 7.2 kW mobile generator.

You are utterly incorrect, and have no idea what you are talking about.

The Lightning pickup was a high end luxury vehicle, that wasn't really a pickup. All electric pickups suffer from severe towing limitations compared to gasoline. Not to mention they total fail in comparison to hybrid powertrain approaches that can give them ranges in the 400-600 miles *WHILE TOWING*.

That is, to say, the Lightning was always a glorified grocery getter for people who didn't use a pickup for a work-use. It was suburban vehicle for those that didn't want to have an SUV. It was an upscale minivan that you could put plywood and crap in the back - if you didn't care about messing up your $70,000 truck. It was a great vehicle - but it wasn't a "Truck".

Ford is pursing EVs in a BIG way. Their Louisville plant is ramping up to produce highly competitive LOW cost EV's with good range. Which is the only way that you're going to move people into EV's. No want wants to spend extra money just to drive an "EV" anymore. The "I drive a Tesla" hipster / yuppie phase is dying, or is dead. The new vehicles need to be practical, low cost, and relieve range concerns.

Anyway - it sounds like it doesn't fit your use case, which I suspect is not actually a towing vehicle / work truck and is more a 'get me to work' or a 'get me to the grocery store' or 'I want get some mulch for the flower bed'. Trucks sold in volume have a pretty well defined purpose. And that's to be used as a truck.

Oh, 'MAGAts'? Nice. Really shows off that high-level, nuanced critical thinking you're known for. Keep up the great work, champ
