Abstract
The article examines how U.S. President Donald Trump's administration is using political influence to favor co-founders of Oracle Corp., Larry and David Ellison, in major media mergers, expanding their control over the U.S. entertainment industry. Topics include the Ellisons' growing media power through potential control of Warner Bros. Discovery, the administration's manipulation of antitrust policy for loyal allies, and parallels to Viktor Orbán's media consolidation in Hungary.
