California Attorney General Rob Bonta canceled a planned meeting with Paramount executives to discuss a potential settlement in the state's antitrust lawsuit blocking Paramount's acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery. Bonta accused Paramount of leaking details of the settlement discussions and acting in bad faith, though he left open the possibility of future talks if Paramount engages sincerely. The dispute centers on demands for Paramount to divest cable networks and keep Warner's studio separate, which Paramount is unlikely to accept. California leaders, including Governor Gavin Newsom, prefer a settlement but are concerned about Paramount's threat to leave the state, which could impact Hollywood significantly.
