WASHINGTON, Nov 12 (Reuters) - The top Democrats on two

U.S. House of Representatives committees said Wednesday

Paramount Skydance had refused to answer key questions or

provide documents tied to the Trump administration's approval of

its the company's $8.4 billion merger with the CBS News-parent

company.

Representatives Jamie Raskin and Frank Pallone wrote

Paramount Skydance ( PSKY ) CEO David Ellison, accusing the media company

of "stonewalling congressional oversight." The Democratic

lawmakers sought the documents after the Federal Communications

Commission in July approved the deal after Paramount agreed to

pay $16 million to settle President Donald Trump's lawsuit

against CBS over its airing of an interview with former Vice

President Kamala Harris.
