    9 days ago - By Slash Film

The biggest news of the day centered on Zaslav's decision to merge HBO Max's subscriber base with Discovery+ (which claimed 24 million subscribers at the same Q1 juncture). Today, the company announced that at the end of Q2, HBO Max and Discovery+ had combined for 92.1 million subscribers.

    9 days ago - By Slash Film

    Warner Bros. Discovery has found itself at the center of a somewhat less-than-ideal quagmire of its own making, and that was before today's investor's call revealed the extent of the studio's financial losses in the immediate aftermath of this year's momentous merger.
