Because they're totally independent organizations (that's how
Time/Warner is structured), and one division cannot force another to
do anything. It is, in my view, just a tad dysfunctional.

Part of the WB/B5/TNT hassle has always been getting caught in
the switches on who IS the parent. Time/Warner says we own TNT (which
they do), but then TNT says the biggest shareholder in TW is...Ted
Turner (which is also true). Part of this massively ugly struggle has
been that fight for power, and we've been kind of the football on many
occasions.

No, for much the same interdivisional reasons.
