Discovery fell short of Wall Street expectations in the second quarter, as Supergirl and the lack of the NBA dragged total revenue down 11% to $8.7 billion. The company reported the quarterly financials with its $110 billion merger with Paramount in legal limbo. Streaming proved a bright spot, with total revenue up 10% to $3.1B and EBITDA jumping 75% to $512 million. The ad story marred the quarterly performance of the Global Linear Networks division, whose revenue slid 17% to $3.99 billion. The quarterly numbers followed Tuesday’s earnings report from Paramount, which featured some updated comments about the WBD merger.
