Paramount named Mattel's Ynon Kreiz co-CEO alongside David Ellison shortly after a judge approved its 12-state settlement over the $81 billion Warner deal. Both chief executives take over a studio whose operating plan now has to fit the terms 12 states negotiated and a federal judge approved.

Judge Timothy Kelly, whom Trump appointed, sounded unconvinced by the national-security case for keeping CNN, MS NOW and Politico off the grounds, and said he would rule as soon as possible. The exclusion is about a week old.
