They acquired a $50 Billion dollar debt when Discovery bought them from AT&T, who is also to blame for the current situation the company is in, and Zaslav is trying to save 3 Billion by next year. WB and Discovery content is getting cut left and right.
You have to stop generalizing people, not every executive is the same. The higher-ups at Cartoon Network were against the purge, and warned WBD not to do it as it would hurt the relationship between creators/talent. But Discovery ignored them.
