Mamdani: I’m ‘Incredibly Concerned’ by Paramount Merger

RUSH EXCERPT:

MAMDANI: "Yes, I think it affects the city. It is something that leaves me incredibly concerned. And while I so appreciate the valiant efforts of our attorney general, tish James, in fighting for protections for the workers here in New York City who create so much of the film that we love and adore. I‘m also incredibly concerned by the federal government‘s decision to allow such a merger to proceed, because, as you said, this is the consolidation of media. This is part and parcel of why so many Americans have a diminishing faith in media.”
