 Sony and Apollo Said to Offer $26 Billion for Paramount
==========

Sony Group and Apollo Global Management have made a $26 billion proposal to acquire Paramount Global, the owner of CBS and MTV. The offer is an all-cash deal for Paramount shares and the assumption of debt. Paramount, controlled by Shari Redstone, has been considering a merger proposal from David Ellison, head of Skydance Media and son of Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison. Other Paramount investors have criticized Ellison's proposal, leading Paramount to consider other bids.
