How Cartoon Network Comes Into Affect Under Discovery Global?

Last month, Warner Bros. Discovery announced that they'd be splitting up into two separate companies and not long ago they unveiled the names of these two separate companies. To no one's surprise Warner Bros. and Discovery Global were the names the company took at least a month to figure out.

Warner Bros. under this new structure is technically not even a broadcaster as it houses Warner Bros. Pictures, DC Studios, HBO and it's streaming service HBO Max. Discovery Global retains Discovery Channel, HGTV and TLC while bundling Cartoon Network, TNT and CNN from Warner Bros. 

Some can argue that this is a disbandment of Warner Bros. Discovery but if you look at the structure the cable aspect remains intact. The problem part is that most of the debt about $30 billion goes to Discovery Global.

While Discovery Global on paper owns Cartoon Network and TNT all the content even the trademark remains under Warner Bros. So Discovery Global already being bloated with debt has to pay for shows like The Wonderfully Weird World Of Gumball even to retain the IP on its cable network.

Discovery Global once split from Warner Bros. will obviously try to undo the damage of the merger which may include disinvestment or sale of assets. As for Cartoon Network, how is there any guarantee that Discovery Global will keep up to its commitments.

Neither Warner Bros. and Discovery Global have provided assurances for Warner TV and Toonami's lot brands dependant on their studios to remain afloat. Discovery Global could just use these assets to bolster their remaining offering viewed on HGTV and TLC.
