But its not too early to start thinking about where the incoming regime might make an impact.

Here are five of the most pressing questions I have right now.

Will a Trump administration make it more likely that entertainment conglomerates will partner up or merge?

As CNBCs Alex Shermanreported last summer, folks like Warner Bros.

Discovery CEO David Zaslav think the Biden administration has been overly tough in regulating companies like his.

There needs to be some consolidation to make it have these businesses be stronger.

The further disintegrations of legacy media is something they probably welcome.

None of this means mergers wont happen or that Trumps White House will betougherthan Bidens in terms of regulation.

Im just not sure its the slam dunk some people think it is.

Do progressive and centrist viewers return to MSNBC and CNN?

Trumps return isnt going to reverse the long-term trendline.

Im not so sure it will, at least not as dramatically as it did before.

But Im not sure the gains will be as impressive as last night.

(ThinkCBS MorningsPowered by CNN … or even Fox News.)

Weve seen Netflix and Amazon pull content from international markets when local governments objected.

Would they react differently if the U.S. government starts complaining?

Will anti-Trump programming make a comeback?

Its not that liberal Hollywood has warmed to Trump in any way.
