David Ellison Hosts Trump Dinner While Awaiting CNN Approval
"Ellison's dinner party for Trump and the CBS News crew will be held at the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace, which the president renamed last year from the U.S. Institute of Peace."
"The deal will put CNN under Ellison's control, as well as other properties like HBO and its film studio, following Paramount Skydance's victory over Netflix in acquiring WB Discovery."
"Trump has said he will attend the WHCA party on April 25 for the first time as president, with CBS News inviting notable guests including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth."
David Ellison, CEO of Paramount Skydance, is hosting a dinner in Washington, D.C. on April 23 to honor President Donald Trump and CBS News' White House correspondents. This event occurs as his company seeks federal approval for a $111 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, which includes control over CNN and HBO. The dinner follows previous regulatory approvals from Trump's administration for an $8 billion deal that placed Ellison in charge of CBS. Trump's involvement in the merger process has been noted, with speculation surrounding Netflix's withdrawal from negotiations.
