Paramount Skydance has made a direct offer to buy Warner Bros. Discovery. The move follows a recent deal where Netflix agreed to purchase a part of Paramount.
The bid is a "hostile takeover" attempt. This means Paramount Skydance presented the offer directly to Warner Bros. shareholders, bypassing the company's own board of directors.
The proposal aims to acquire the entire Warner Bros. Discovery company. Financial details of the offer were not immediately disclosed.
CBS News MoneyWatch correspondent Kelly O'Grady is reporting on the developing situation.
