Warner Bros. Discovery is facing a lawsuit from investors over the loss of NBA media rights, which has significantly impacted the company. The lawsuit, seeking class action status, alleges that Warner Bros. Discovery misled investors by failing to disclose the financial ramifications of losing the NBA deal. This follows a $9.1 billion goodwill impairment charge related to the company's unsuccessful bid for the league's rights. The loss of NBA media rights has raised concerns about the company's strategic direction and its ability to retain key sports broadcasting deals.
