News Summary:

On September 18, 2026, the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) approved a request from Paramount and Skydance to allow foreign investors to participate in their $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. The commission, however, placed restrictions on this approval, barring foreign investors from holding voting stock in the merged entity. Previously, on September 17, Paramount and Skydance were reportedly exploring office space in Nashville, actively looking for approximately 400,000 square feet near downtown, as the company considers moving operations out of California. This followed an order on September 16 for Paramount Skydance to meet with California Attorney General Rob Bonta's representatives next month (October) for court-ordered settlement talks, which could clear a path for David Ellison’s $111 billion takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. The two sides were set to convene for two days.
