Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current president of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality. Trump was born and raised in the New York City borough of Queens, and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School. He took charge of his family's real-estate business in 1971, renamed it The Trump Organization, and expanded its operations from Queens and Brooklyn into Manhattan.
The company built or renovated skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. Trump later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. He owned the Miss Universe and Miss USA beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015, and produced and hosted The Apprentice, a reality television show, from 2003 to 2015. Forbes estimates his net worth to be $3.1 billion.
Naman Ramachandran European media powerhouse RTL Group released its first half 2024 results on Friday, revealing a mixed performance across its divisions.
The report highlighted a revenue decline at content arm Fremantle, contrasted by strong growth in streaming subscriptions. Fremantle, RTL’s global content production business, saw revenue fall to €957 million ($1.04 billion) in the first half of 2024, down from just above €1 billion ($1.09 billion) in the same period last year.
The company attributed the decrease to market developments and phasing effects, partially offset by the first-time full consolidation of recently acquired Asacha Media Group.
Despite the revenue dip, Fremantle achieved significant creative success in the first half of the year. Notably, its film “Poor Things” from Element Pictures won 34 awards, including four Academy Awards, two Golden Globes and five BAFTA Awards.
