This is such a strange deal, and I can't tell if they're really smarter than I think they are, but I can't imagine trying to run any kind of right-leaning entertainment company having Taylor Sheridan, acknowledging that you have Taylor Sheridan by calling him a "singular genius and content creator" and then driving him away months later because you keep meddling in his creative work.

If I was trying to turn Paramount into a like right-leaning culture war friendly entertainment company, I would have given Taylor Sheridan whatever he wanted, and changed the name to "Paramount, brought to you by Taylor Sheridan".

I remember when this first started, I thought to myself, how are you going to bring back 80's style American jingoism with only one director doing it, then I find out it was worse then that, because they drove that one director away.

Remember they also own Star Trek, which is on the other end of the spectrum, and has been pushing further left.
