AT&T May Not Be Selling WBIE After All [Aug 09, 2020, 2:32 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
A
WarnerMedia Organization Update was sent to all employees of the Warner
Media Group on Friday suggesting that AT&T is moving away from whatever plans
they had to divest themselves of their gaming properties (thanks
Eurogamer.net). Reports surfaced a couple of
months ago saying they were looking to sell Warner Bros. Interactive
Entertainment and possible customers included Take-Two Interactive, Electronic
Arts, and Activision Blizzard. These reports heated up more recently with the
news that Microsoft might also be interested in buying. But at least for now,
CEO Jason Kilar says WBIE will continue to be part of their Studios and Networks
group:
The Warner Bros. Motion Pictures Group continues to be led by Chairman Toby Emmerich. Warner Bros. Television Studios group continues to be led by Chairman Peter Roth. Warner Bros. Interactive remains part of the Studios and Networks group, along with our Global Brands and Franchises team including DC led by Pam Lifford, and our Kids, Young Adults and Classics business led by Tom Ascheim, all focused on engaging fans with our brands and franchises through games and other interactive experiences.

A lot of press wrote on this based on face value of the internal e-mail (shocker) but this very good legal channel goes into detail about how this actually means it's more likely to be for sale, not less: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avPbbwO7Eoc
