Are they suggesting the Nick and MTV networks are no longer Paramount property?

Just shut the whole thing down and make Nick a Paramount Plus brand or something. The channel’s a rotting carcass (like every other kids cable network that’s not named Disney Channel).

Yeeeeah, I feel like Cartoon Network's going to become that too. According to my research, the main HQ and webstie are gone and it's likely that a lot of its shows are going to go away soon.

Let's see what happens to these two networks in the coming years.
 
Cartoon Network is dead even though their schedule improved and I tune in sometimes they have basically zero new shows, and almost everything they've got is reruns. Nick is also really dead, with the occasional good ratings because of football and (mostly lousy) new shows/episodes. It'll be kind of sad to see Nick go away despite their also bad schedule, cause it's a convenient way to watch SpongeBob episodes for me. But both channels (mostly CN for a few years) are starting to struggle in hitting 100,000 viewer mark. They'll still probably be around for a good while though, I mean if compaines were more firm CN would be dead for good and Nick would be dying, and all of the subsect channels would vanish. it's kind of sad to see them go on pitfully, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Honestly I have to agree, albeit for a whole set of different reasons primarily for being just a hotspot for some people, lets just say. (If you can catch my drift)

And considering that, Nickelodeon has that reputation for pretty much letting that "crap" slide, after everything had been revealed about a certain Dirty Dan.

Regarding Cartoon Network though, at this point it's just a slow death for that considering it had been merged into Warner Bros Animation, and ultimately it just being the TTG Channel when it's not Checkered Past or [Adult Swim].

I'd say the channel that's really dead (relating to Cartoon Network) is Boomerang, since all the classic stuff it used to air like Looney Tunes, The Flintstones, Tom & Jerry, and etcetera have either been moved over to MeTV's cartoon block or it just doesn't air on there any more.

Plus Checkered Past is what Boomerang was when it was just a block on early Cartoon Network, which I find pretty ironic since Boomerang used to air what Checkered Past is airing now.
