Apollo Global Management and Sony’s Bid to Buy Paramount Global Faces Antitrust Hurdles from Democratic-Led Regulators
The Battle for Paramount: Antitrust Concerns and Regulatory Hurdles
Apollo Global Management and Sony’s $26 billion all-cash bid to acquire Paramount Global seems to be facing a significant hurdle in getting the deal passed Democratic-led federal regulators, multiple sources told The Post. Among antitrust concerns is the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) 39% cap on local affiliates’ reach, which could be exceeded if the merger were approved by Paramount’s board.
The FCC exemption loophole known as the “UHF Discount” that counts stations with channels in the UHF bandwidth above 700 MHz as covering half of their households was initially passed in 1985 but revoked in 2016 before being reinstated by Republican FCC Chair Ajit

Since then, men have been able to register as asylum seekers upon arrival at the registration center, but then have to wait on the street. They do, however, claim a place in a homeless shelter. However, there is not room for everyone there: in Brussels alone there are more than 7,000 homeless people, while there are 5,000 shelter places for them.
The men wandering through Brussels receive help from a charity that provides food and other groceries, Nieuwsuur showed last year in this video:
Asylum seekers are wandering the streets in Brussels because there are too few shelters
Belgian refugee organizations went to court to challenge the measure, with legal success. The Belgian Council of State overruled State Secretary De Moor’s decision. But the practice did not change.
The result is that tho

Stock markets today 3 April: the BTP-Bund spread rises, inflation falls
Europe remains on a cautious rise
The main European stock markets confirm the rise with the US indices moving into positive territory.
