DOJ approves Paramount-Warner Bros. merger, potentially putting CBS News and CNN under one roof

The Justice Department’s antitrust division announced the news late Friday, noting in a statement it determined after an eight-month investigation that the megamerger “is not likely to result in harm to competition or American consumers.”
The deal is set to create one of the largest companies in the news and entertainment business. Paramount CEO.
