I don't even know why this is a story. Like, this is what happens literally anytime a company is acquired like this.

As much as I do enjoy watching obscenely rich people lose their jobs, those guys will likely find it a lot easier to get a new job than most of us ever will.

Honestly I didn't think this would be a worthy news story, but then I read who was on the board.

Members included Pirates of the Caribbean producer Jerry Bruckheimer, former ZeniMax president Ernest Del, former MGM CEO Harry Sloan, former CBS CEO Leslie Moonves, former MLB "iron man" Cal Ripken Jr., and private equity executive Michael Dominguez. Former President Trump's brother Robert Trump served the board before his passing in 2020.

Two movie studio execs in their 70s and a TV exec who has been accused of sexual harassment.

Interesting, I look forward to seeing how they end up considering they are in MS hands now, whether for the good or the bad, curious I am.

I'm hoping the monetization of their games will be toned down under Microsoft. Elder Scrolls Online's in game store/crates are obnoxious, and Fallout 76 isn't much better.

I mean, they sold the company.
It would be news if they would still sit on their chairs in the offices and would refuse to leave.
