Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. is considering a possible sale after receiving unsolicited interest from multiple parties, including Netflix Inc. and Comcast Corp., with Warner Bros. shares jumping as much as 12% on Tuesday. Earlier this year, Warner Bros. announced plans to split into two businesses, one focused on cable TV and the other on streaming and studios. The move is an attempt to unshackle its faster-growing streaming division, which includes HBO Max, from the declining cable networks like TNT and CNN. Bloomberg's Lucas Shaw joined Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec on 'Bloomberg Businessweek Daily' to break down Warner Bros. leverage and the possibility of a deal. (Source: Bloomberg)
