Unfortunatly tthe above view has been pushed into student by those that are anti-capitalism.
Anyone who has looked into the stock market knows it is not gambling because investing represents owning a fraction of a real, income-generating business, whereas gambling is a zero sum game based entirely on random chance. When you buy a stock, you deploy capital into the economy to help companies grow, create products, and hire workers. Over the long term, the broader stock market historical trend is positive because it reflects economic growth, corporate innovation, and rising corporate earnings. In contrast, gambling has a built-in negative expectation where the house always wins, creating no economic value and offering no underlying assets to support your investment.

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.

So we will get correct reports on things like:
Hunter laptop being a russia intel job.
Reports on joe being smart and competent.
kamala being the smartest woman around.
The Alfa Bank Server
How they handled Nicholas Sandmann
Biden coming and saying federal employees were "whipping" Haitian immigrants

Or most likely under democrats they will do like they have done in the past and have the tech companies block or label things as false when it goes against what they democrats want you to think.

Except it really wasn't. At the time of Star Trek you had blacks staring in multiple TV shows, even headlining very popular TV shows. TV and movies were hiring blacks with the requirement that they be qualified while under the woke and DEI thinking the industry has shifted toward a system of identity-first hiring, where a actor suitability for a role is secondary to meeting diversity quotas.

The people listed are the same people who have come out against paramount due to allowing free speech and in their news setting up people to ensure that the new was now biased.
They talk that with Paramount not being biased then things such as Biden administration officials "furiously pressured" platforms like Facebook and YouTube to remove posts that questioned vaccine safety or mask efficacy, Biden explicitly having reporters in "reporting it the right way" regarding the economy, and democrats pushing the false "Biden laptop is a Russian hack and leak" will not be allowed to happen.

Comment Re:Gas stations do it (Score 1) 194

With a gas station the price is set when you pul/push the handle/button on the pump, you are not filling up and in the middle the price changes.
With grocery stores I can be in there for a period of time, if you up or lower, no one will care about the lower the price, after I have placed the item in a cart then you have a legal issue.
So the problem becomes how do you make sure you have not raised the price on products for that person who is still shopping. Stores use to do it while closed to the public. Hard to do that with dynamic pricing or when open 24 hours.
So most stores do a thing where if the price goes down they lower at the register then start changing prices on item. If going up you change on the items then wait an hour or two and raise at the register. There goes that dynamic pricing. However just regular prices change are made really easy with those digital price tags.

You mean things like Biden's DOJâ(TM)s warning to Alabama legislators over transgenderâ'related legislation, in order to pressure political opponents . Political attacks from Biden's DOJ centering on prosecutions viewed by critics , including the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith to investigate Donald Trump. Other examples about bidens administration pursued âoeinsidious prosecutionsâ of political adversaries are Dr. Eithan Haim, 2021 DOJ threating parents at local school board meetings, Biden's DOJ insulating Hunter from investigations, and also poltical attacks using the FACE Act.

As for your questions according to democrat yes a few raped children is a small price to pay to protect democrat interested. You only need to look at the cases of Manual cruz-ramierez, juan ramon-vasquez, christian espinosa, ramon ochoa and then the democrats saying things like we need to provide a "safe haven for anyone without legal status", democrats telling any illegal they will have sanctuary in those cities and letting those rapist out, or even multitude of democrat's refusing to hand other similar criminals over for trial and deportation.
