Bob Bakish, CEO of Paramount Global, has canceled a scheduled appearance at a media conference this afternoon due to illness. The chief executive had been slated for an afternoon Q&A keynote session at J.P. Morgan’s 47th<\/sup> Annual Global Technology, Media and Communications Conference in Boston.<\/p>\n

A company spokesperson said Bakish “had to cancel due to illness\/out of abundance of caution chose not to travel to Boston, but not commenting beyond that” – including whether or not it might be Covid-related.<\/p>\n
