智通财经获悉，周四，Skydance Media和派拉蒙环球(PARA.US)为他们84亿美元的合并计划进行了辩护，敦促美国联邦通信委员会(FCC)驳回批评人士的反对，称他们“毫无根据”和“毫无价值”。非营利公益律师事务所Center for American Rights去年12月向FCC请愿，要求阻止这宗合并，理由是担心腾讯控股(00700)对Skydance的投资会对美国媒体产生外国影响。
在提交给FCC的一份文件中，两家公司将该组织和其他批评者(包括LiveVideo.AI和Fuse Media)的请愿书描述为“程序缺陷”，缺乏价值。该文件驳斥了LiveVideo.AI对竞争的担忧，称其所谓的“销售过程被操纵”与FCC的监管角色无关。两家公司表示：“双方都没有发现任何与交易相关的损害，值得拒绝申请或施加条件。”
David Ellison旗下Skydance在2024年7月与派拉蒙达成协议，将两家媒体公司合并，这是一个复杂的两步过程，结束了几个月来对好莱坞最古老的电影公司之一的未来的讨论和猜测。合并预计将在今年上半年完成。
