Hulk Hogan vs. Gawker, Bill Belichick Fever, and the New Washington Post Exodus

Hello, media consumers! Bryan and David cover some headlines, including the approval of the Paramount-Skydance merger, a discouraging new study about Google searches and AI, Bill Belichick rapidly approaching his first game as a college head coach, the WaPo exodus (continued), and more (9:45).
