MidwestTV 1240 Posted June 12, 2018 Posted June 12, 2018 Not only that, but Comcast is going to announce it's intentions to buy Fox tomorrow.
CircleSeven 1960 Posted June 15, 2018 Posted June 15, 2018 Full write up from AT&T. AT&T now has four divisions, which will operate independently. Its Communications division, its Media biz, its ad & analytics biz & its international division. AT&T has yet to name its media business now formerly known as Time Warner. And the former TW CEO Bewkes will stay on as an advisor through the transition phase.

The Frog 434 Posted June 15, 2018 Posted June 15, 2018 Time Warner is now WarnerMedia, a subsidiary of AT&T Inc. The times, they are a-changin'. https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/att-time-warner-warnermedia-turner-chief-john-martin-1202848405/

ToriElectra 292 Posted June 15, 2018 Posted June 15, 2018 It’s necessary. The “Time” in Time Warner left long ago. I was hoping they'd bring back the Warner Communications name and logo myself.
Georgie56 3324 Posted June 15, 2018 Author Posted June 15, 2018 Here’s CNN’s interview with new CEO John Stankey: http://money.cnn.com/2018/06/15/media/john-stankey-att-time-warner-interview/index.html
Eat News 4745 Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 Time Warner is now WarnerMedia, a subsidiary of AT&T Inc. The times, they are a-changin'. https://variety.com/2018/tv/news/att-time-warner-warnermedia-turner-chief-john-martin-1202848405/ So if I dial "O" for the Operator will I get Jeff Zuker ?
channel2 982 Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 "AT&T will be retiring the Time Warner name, but Stankey wasn't quite ready to reveal the new brand yet. He said AT&T spent time testing the new name through market research, surveys and focus groups." The name "WarnerMedia" is such a no-brainer that all this fuss sounds ridiculous. They have already added the logo to Time Warner's website and changed its URL.
Megatron81 282 Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 AT&T is back to 80's levels before the government disband the evil empire that was AT&T and forming the baby bells. DOJ should keep fighting it all the way to the supreme court and not let AT&T & Time Warner from merging the judge was wrong and clearly doesn't know the law.
Lovable52811 5 Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Here is the logo for Warner Media. Isn’t It crappy? I’m getting out my barf bag!
WestleyWolf 122 Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Well, Time Warner rebranded to Warner Media after AT&T closed their merger Isn’t this a crappy logo for Warner Media? I’m getting out my barf bag! and unfortunately a new byline that's probably going to butcher some logos after movies and TV shows.
mre29 1557 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Here is the logo for Warner Media. Isn’t It crappy? I’m getting out my barf bag! It'd be better if the words were on the same line, or "MEDIA" was centered horizontally under "WARNER". But what would help more is color.
CircleSeven 1960 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 It'd be better if the words were on the same line, or "MEDIA" was centered horizontally under "WARNER". But what would help more is color. Here it is, on the same line unspaced, from their website's header.
mre29 1557 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Here it is, on the same line unspaced, from their website's header. Hm. Bit lopsided in favor of "WARNER" there. Oh, well. Now add colors.
DonDonP1 118 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Here is the logo for Warner Media. Isn’t It crappy? I’m getting out my barf bag! To be honest, I love that logo! Both versions, that is.
channel2 982 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 It's probably not anything that's going to be seen by the average consumer that often...
Georgie56 3324 Posted June 28, 2018 Author Posted June 28, 2018 It's probably not anything that's going to be seen by the average consumer that often... Oh really?
channel2 982 Posted June 28, 2018 Posted June 28, 2018 Okay, yeah, the bylines. But WB was the only division that ever really showed the Time Warner logo to the public on a regular basis, and we don't know if they plan on keeping a byline or not. (That CN logo doesn't have Time Warner's corporate logo, and the one they replaced it with eschews a byline altogether)

(That CN logo doesn't have Time Warner's corporate logo, and the one they replaced it with eschews a byline altogether) The movie studio has used a byline on all of their production logos since 1970, a practice that probably should have ended after the AOLTimeWarner era.
channel2 982 Posted July 4, 2018 Posted July 4, 2018 The movie logo is long overdue for some sort of change anyway. They hardly even seem to use "As Time Goes By" anymore, or play the logo without some sort of filter or anything.
