(Washington, DC) -- Oregon Senator Ron Wyden is questioning a potential secret payoff to President Trump connected to the merger between Skydance and Paramount. The earlier announced settlement by Paramount may exceed the original 16-million-dollars. It may also involve running public service announcements for conservative causes, more than doubling the settlement. Wyden is joining Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders in investigating the issue. They also want to know whether the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was connected to the deal.
