Sony, yes, the company behind PlayStation, is reportedly considering making a bid to buy Paramount, the massive media that currently has the likes of Nickelodeon and MTV, as well as Paramount Pictures and Paramount+ – though you might well have been able to guess those latter two – under its umbrella.
Both add that Paramount is currently still in exclusive talks with another company Skydance Media, about a potential merger.
Who knows what’ll actually end up happening with all of this corporate chess, but hey, it’s a thing.
This is according to reports from The New York Times and Bloomberg, which claim that Sony and an investment firm called Apollo Global Management, are considering making a joint offer to acquire Paramount, though no such proposal has actually been submitted as of yet.
