Discovery Networks U.S., a privately owned entity headquartered in the US and operating under WBD Networks (Discovery), was founded in 1985. With approximately 5000 employees, the company reported $9.2B in revenue as of 2020. Functioning as a US-based channels group of Discovery, it manages 19 linear channels, primarily focusing on broadcast television and radio.
On March 21, 2026, TNT Sports announced a forthcoming significant change to its streaming coverage of sporting events. The broadcaster has been integrated with Discovery+ since 2023, having replaced BT Sport in July 2023 as part of a joint venture between BT Sport and Warner Bros Discovery. Earlier the same day, renewed scrutiny emerged over the potential $887 million payout for Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav. This payout stems from a proposed acquisition of Paramount Global by Skydance Media and draws attention to the practice of "golden parachutes"—lucrative severance packages awarded to executives upon a change in company control.
