    -BET+ as you know it will be no more come June.

    -Paramount has bought Tyler Perrys stake in the service and will be absorbing it into Paramount+ where it will join SHowtime as a hub option within the service.

    -Paramount stated “As part of this evolution, Paramount acquired Tyler Perry Studios’ equity stake in BET+, we share the same ambition to expand the reach of BET content, and Tyler will continue to be a valued and important partner through his overall programming agreement.”

    -Pete Hegseth lashed out at CNN over their refusal to rain him praise

    -As such he went on a rant stating that he could not wait for David Ellison, who owns Paramount, to take over CNN

    -The Ellisons have already been notorious for taking CBS news and rebranding it to be more favorable to the Trump administration, something that Hegseth is making clear that they will do once they get their hands on CNN.
