Viacom being pressured to sell Paramount

Not sure what bearing this will have on the TMNT franchise going.

Yah, know, when Viacom and CBS split ten years ago, Viacom got to keep the theatrical film rights to Star Trek, while CBS got all other rights. I wonder if a similar deal will made if this happens.
