Unions urge settlement or faster trial over Warner Bros merger delay
Discovery for the Warner Bros merger was set for March 2027, prompting DGA and IATSE leaders to warn that the long wait would hurt workers. In a letter to California AG Rob Bonta and CEO David Ellison, they urged a settlement or expedited trial, citing major job declines since 2022. The Writers Guild backs the AG case and filed its own lawsuit to block the merger, widening labor divisions.
