Judgment in the Senate.

Choosing between Paramount and Netflix for ruling over Warner Bros. is one evil or another. Is there a lesser evil? Alien vs. Predator has a magnificent slogan: “Whoever wins, we lose”. However, I absolutely don’t want a corporation to become under Netflix’s control with their derivative content, which carries on in heading of degradation. The streaming company cares that filmmakers repeat a plot for audience with smartphones many times, and this company leans heavily on propaganda of far-left ideology. A situation isn’t over yet, but the initial bias of Warner’s CEO toward Netflix comes from the friendship between heads of these companies. The merger can be prevented only by the US government. A concern about a fusion between corporations, which likely be worsen for theaters, led to a hearing in the Senate of Netflix’s CEO and Warner’s representative in Chief Revenue and Strategy Officer.

 

The senators from the Democrats asked standard and common questions, keeping a light tone. However, Netflix’s CEO became serious even with simple ones. In responding to questions from Republicans, he couldn’t answer them because always talked about something else.

It was lovely how Senator Hawley destroyed the streaming corporation head by asking a simple about residuals to workers, which, as he pointed, is “yes and no question,” but Netflix’s leader started to falter and his response was its “a very complicated answer”. Hawley confirmed that his speaking means “no”. Then he went on to expose CEO of Netflix’s activity as it should be toward that man. The senator held him responsible for highly sexualized content in children programs, about which the head of Netflix didn’t want to accept, and he stated that his company is political neutral, which he uttered multiple times, but there all male Republicans exposed the corporation’s promotion of the Democratic Party’s agenda. The streaming corporation leader pronounced that Netflix can block any content. However it didn’t with that detrimental one intended for kids.

The head of digital enterprise conceded reluctantly that 99 percent of donations from Netflix employees go to the Democrats, in answering Eric Schmitt. This senator mentioned a committed racist act toward white people, which was during time of George Floyd riots, when the streaming corporation posted such a statement on social network’s official account, and he concluded that they’re guilty and must be ashamed of themselves. CEO’s response was from not remembering to converting to “deeply regretted” in posting that, uttering it in a formal mode – he was as simple as his content. Netflix’s leader repeated that his company has no political agenda after he was exposed in that. Schmitt quoted the corporation’s support of Black Lives Matter, but the CEO of Netflix kept to his aforementioned statement on no political agenda. I thought, he must be a robot. The next from Senator Eric Schmitt was accusation of Netflix in presence of pervasive content for kids, and there he asked whether Netflix made that decision, requiring that an answer be “yes or no”, but the frightened and faltering streaming leader avoided it and spoke instead about political variety and that parents can block. Senator Schmidt made a greatness by destroying Netflix’s CEO at the end of his time.

Senator Ted Cruz advanced further in deconstructing, which was exposing the head of streaming company in his intellectuality. The politician from Texas asked a question, which he rightly  and subtly pointed out: it is from “basic economics”, about to what led if market power increases, to raise or lower prices. The accusing couldn’t answer. The next question was, “Are we, right now, on stolen land?” and there Netflix’s leader confessed he doesn’t know the history of America. It described Netflix itself. That man was uncomfortable all that time, which often included faltering, while he was hesitating at that moment. Then Cruz revealed the political activity of Netflix through iron facts. The following hit from the Texan senator targeted Warner’s Chief Revenue and Strategy Officer, who couldn’t answer about the existence of a right-wing program in his corporation’s content, using the same avoidance of a question. Why everybody can’t understand this tactic is already a failure because it exposes you? Warner Bros.’s representative didn’t find anything better to say that it is not his responsibility about CNN’s news and called that the department independent. A typical response, as those ones from war criminals in front of international courts. Cruz was monumental in his retort that CNN has only independence which is “hating Donald Trump”.

 

I’ve never wished stronger that Netflix go down than watching the hearing in the US Senate.
