George Soros Goes Hollywood

NEW YORK – Entertainment company Viacom Inc. said Friday it agreed to sell the film library of the recently acquired DreamWorks studio to an investment group led by financier George Soros in a deal that values the library at $900 million.

The 59 films in the library include “Gladiator,” “American Beauty” and “Saving Private Ryan.”

Viacom, which recently split off its broadcasting and publishing assets into separately traded CBS Corp., said the deal will complete the second stage of its acquisition of DreamWorks SKG Inc., the studio founded by director Steven Spielberg, producer David Geffen and former Walt Disney Co. executive Jeffrey Katzenberg.

I’m suprised that Dreamworks didn’t give its library to the ACLU as a donation.

Soros is just as bad and it was Viacom that did the selling. Remember, they are the ones that brought you Rather-gate among other things.
