Paramount’s Hollywood Exit Could Trigger an Avalanche in Los Angeles

The American Spectator 

"White House dreaming Governor Gavin Newsom has run the state since 2019 — into the ground, with the help of big city mayors." 

See the mountain in the middle of the city?

. . . Jesus said faith can move a mountain. But so can leftism. And the combination of California-Los Angeles-Hollywood Democratic ineptitude seems about to move the famous Paramount Pictures mountain out of the town and state where it has been for 100 years. Two weeks ago, I wrote an article here on how the imminent Paramount-Warner Bros. company might leave LA after the merger and desolate the entertainment industry. Now it appears Paramount will bolt if the merger is delayed.
"Last month, Paramount CEO David Ellison told his senior staff, LA Mayor Bass’s office, and state officials that he will transplant the studio to another (red) state if the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger is not settled by October 1st. California Attorney General Rob Bonta — who has worked to block the merger under liberal pressure — called the threat blackmail. Even though his maneuverings would force Paramount to start paying Warner Bros. $7 million per day beginning October 1st until the merger closes.
"Why the California AG is even involved in trying to block a corporate merger would make a great Hollywood picture — which will never be produced because it makes Hollywood and the Democratic city-state regime look like the left-wing clowns they are. As I wrote in my piece, the opposition to the Paramount-Warner Bros. merger has little to do with the stated objection — economics and jobs. Democratic control of the government and the Industry has resulted in total disaster for both.
"White House dreaming Governor Gavin Newsom has run the state since 2019 — into the ground, with the help of big city mayors. They spent $37 billion to reduce housing costs, yet fewer people can afford homes today, 44 percent, than six years ago, 57 percent. Of that sum, $28 billion supposedly went to alleviate homelessness, which increased 20 percent in five years from 151,000 vagrants (2019) to more than 187,000.
"Why the California AG is even involved in trying to block a corporate merger would make a great Hollywood picture — which will never be produced because it makes Hollywood and the Democratic city-state regime look like the left-wing clowns they are." . . .

Bonanza's True Filming Location & Paramount Studios Tour

"The Bonanza TV series was not truly shot at the Ponderosa Ranch nor Virginia City, Nevada but inside studios and Western Street of Paramount Studios in Hollywood. To check out that location Jeff and his son Bret visited Paramount Studios in Hollywood and learned much more about the movies and TV shows shot here. It was like drinking from a firehose!"
