In the world of media, things are heating up. Paramount is making a bold move to buy Warner Bros. Discovery. They even sued Warner Bros. to get more info about their deal with Netflix. Warner Bros. Discovery isn't having it, though. They said Paramount's offer isn't good enough and that their board is doing a great job. Meanwhile, PBS is saying goodbye to its weekend news shows. They're cutting costs after losing a lot of funding. But don't worry, they're replacing it with new shows about science and foreign affairs. And in the airline industry, Allegiant Air is buying Sun Country Airlines. This deal is worth $1. 5 billion. The two airlines think this will make travel more affordable for everyone.
Apple is teaming up with Google to make Siri smarter. They're using Google's AI technology to add new features to the iPhone. This is a big deal because Apple has been behind in the AI race. Meta, the company behind Facebook, is making some big changes too. They hired a former Trump adviser to a high-up position. She'll help with AI projects and data centers. They're also cutting jobs in their virtual reality division to focus more on AI wearables. All these changes show that big companies are always looking for new ways to grow and adapt. It's an exciting time in the world of business.
