You didn't accept our deal.
It's not an injunction saying you must accept our deal.
That is not at all what Paramount is doing.
But wouldn't you just define it, David, as tactics to try to win?
No, it's to make sure that the rules are fair.
They certainly want to win.
The tactic to win is to bid the most and to make sure that everyone who's casting a vote knows what the best bid is and what the highest bid is.
And by the way, actions speak louder than words.
Netflix, in a response to the lawsuit, which they're not being sued, they didn't call up Zaslav and say, hey, make sure you disclose more.
They upped their bid.
They changed the nature and characteristic of their bid, which to me is one of the great acknowledgements that they knew that their bid actually was not the best for the shareholders.
So, by the way, all of this is to the benefit of the WBD shareholders.
Maybe.
Are you a shareholder?
Do you not want the most money for your shares?
I'm only laughing because you speak as though you're not a shareholder.
I am hoping that Netflix wins this.
Do you know you have a fiduciary duty?
Let's say you were in charge of an institution, you were an institutional shareholder.
The words you just said are a blatant violation of fiduciary duty.
