    CBS-Viacom Battle Comes to a Head; FDA Approves Novartis Migraine Drug --ICMYI

    After a heated week of litigation battles, CBS on Thursday proceeded with a board meeting it had scheduled to vote on whether to dilute the voting power of National Amusements Inc., a company controlled by Shari Redstone. This came after a court decision that said CBS could not prevent Redstone from changing CBS's bylaws to prevent that from occurring. All of which means CBS directors and Redstone will be back in court soon to fight over voting control, with Redstone pushing to combine CBS with Viacom, unless of course, both sides instead consider the option to auction the media company.
