Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Skydance Media took ownership of CBS through its 2025 merger with Paramount Global?

Yes. A reference article on the merger and a scholarly account both state that Skydance Media merged with Paramount Global in 2025, with the combined entity taking in CBS and other Paramount properties. Several other sources confirm the merger's approval or completion but do not themselves mention CBS ownership.
