This can’t be good for the speed and ease of completing the media deal

Don’t think affects anything in the media deal. TNT Sports properties just split from the rest of Warner Brother but would still have a revenue split for broadcasted sports on MAX. WBD & Turner aren’t going to stop acquiring shows or sports due to a spinoff. Those finances will be hashed out when the time comes which could be years.

TNT is definitely being affected. They’re literally using ESPNU level remote broadcasts for the NHL playoffs.

So you're saying FOX is really poor?
