A coalition of advocacy groups operating under the name Block the Merger submitted a legal filing late Thursday asking a court to reject an agreement between Paramount and state officials regarding the Warner Bros. Discovery transaction.

The third-party brief was entered into the court record by organizations including Free Press, the Committee for the First Amendment, the Freedom of the Press Foundation, and the Future of Music Coalition.

Additional information regarding the legal challenge and the upcoming court proceedings is expected to emerge as the case progresses.
