Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business Time Warner Inc. (“Time Warner” or the “Company”) is a leading media and entertainment company, whose businesses include television networks, and film and TV entertainment. Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Turner : consisting principally of cable networks and digital media properties; Home Box Office : consisting principally of premium pay television services and a service that delivers video content to consumers over the internet (“OTT service”) domestically and premium pay, basic tier television and OTT services internationally; and Warner Bros. : consisting principally of television, feature film, home video and videogame production and distribution. Basis of Presentation Interim Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, they contain all the adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim periods. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Time Warner included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “ 2016 Form 10-K”). Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include all the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of entities in which Time Warner has a controlling interest (“subsidiaries”). Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and judgments inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include accounting for asset impairments, multiple-element transactions, allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, the determination of ultimate revenues as it relates to amortization or impairment of capitalized film and programming costs and participations and residuals, home video and videogame product returns, business combinations, pension and other postretirement benefits, equity-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies, litigation matters, reporting revenue for certain transactions on a gross versus net basis, and the determination of whether the Company should consolidate certain entities. Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2017 Share-Based Payments On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, new accounting guidance that changes the reporting for certain aspects of share-based payments. One aspect of the guidance requires that the income tax effects of share-based awards be recognized in the Income tax provision in the Consolidated Statement of Operations when the awards vest or are settled. Under the previous guidance, excess tax benefits and deficiencies were recognized in Additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the amount of excess tax benefits, net of deficiencies, recognized in Income tax provision and Additional paid-in capital, respectively, was $98 million and $35 million , respectively. In addition, because excess tax benefits are no longer recognized in Additional paid-in capital under the new guidance, such amounts are no longer included in the determination of assumed proceeds in applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share. Another aspect of the new guidance requires that excess tax benefits be classified as a cash flow from operating activities, rather than a cash flow from financing activities, in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the amount of excess tax benefits presented as a cash flow from operating activities and financing activities, respectively, was $98 million and $40 million , respectively. The other aspects of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted Modification of Share-Based Payments In May 2017, guidance was issued that clarifies when changes to the terms and conditions of share-based awards must be accounted for as modifications. The guidance does not change the accounting treatment for modifications. The guidance, which will become effective on a prospective basis on January 1, 2018, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Net Periodic Benefit Costs In March 2017, guidance was issued that requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic benefit costs relating to defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. While the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs will continue to be presented as an operating expense, the other components are now required to be recorded outside of operating income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 2016 , net periodic benefit costs relating to defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans were $46 million , $4 million of which related to the service cost component. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018. Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, guidance was issued to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment. The guidance removes the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires that a hypothetical purchase price allocation be performed to determine the amount of impairment, if any. Under this new guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will be based on the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance will become effective on a prospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Definition of a Business In January 2017, guidance was issued that changes the definition of a business for accounting purposes. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of a set of assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set of assets is not deemed to be a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set of assets meets the requirement to be deemed a business, which at a minimum, requires there to be an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The guidance will become effective on a prospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Restricted Cash In November 2016, guidance was issued that requires that a statement of cash flows present the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total cash amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory In October 2016, guidance was issued that requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intercompany transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than deferring the income tax consequences of the intercompany transfer of assets until the asset has been sold to a third party. The guidance will become effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, guidance was issued that clarifies the presentation of certain cash receipts and payments in a company’s statement of cash flows. The guidance primarily relates to the classification of cash flows associated with certain (i) debt transactions, (ii) contingent consideration arrangements related to business combinations, (iii) insurance claims and policies, (iv) distributions received from equity method investees and (v) securitization transactions. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting for Leases In February 2016, guidance was issued regarding accounting for leases. The main difference between the current guidance and the new guidance is the recognition by the lessee of lease assets and liabilities for those leases it classified as operating leases under the current guidance. Under the new guidance, the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease as well as the lessor accounting model have not significantly changed from current guidance. This guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures of key information about leasing arrangements. The new guidance will become effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. Because the Company is a party to more than 2,000 operating leases with future minimum rental commitments at December 31, 2016 of $1.154 billion , it expects that the impact of recognizing lease assets and liabilities for these operating leases will be significant to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities In January 2016, guidance was issued that makes limited changes to the accounting for financial instruments. The changes primarily relate to (i) the requirement to measure equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, at fair value, with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings, (ii) an alternative approach for the measurement of equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value, (iii) the elimination of the other-than-temporary impairment model and its replacement with a requirement to perform a qualitative assessment to identify the impairment of equity investments, and a requirement to recognize impairment losses in earnings based on the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the equity investment, (iv) the elimination of the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost, (v) the addition of a requirement to use the exit price concept when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes and (vi) the addition of a requirement to present financial assets and financial liabilities separately in the notes to the financial statements, grouped by measurement category (e.g., fair value, amortized cost, lower of cost or market) and by form of financial asset (e.g., loans, securities). This guidance will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, guidance was issued that establishes a new revenue recognition framework in GAAP for all companies and industries. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue from the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive for those goods or services. The guidance includes a five-step framework to determine the timing and amount of revenue to recognize related to contracts with customers. In addition, this guidance requires new or expanded disclosures related to the judgments made by companies when following this framework. Based on the current guidance, the new framework will become effective on either a full or modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018. Subsequent to the issuance of the May 2014 guidance, several clarifications and updates have been issued by the FASB on this topic, the most recent of which was issued in December 2016. Many of these clarifications and updates to the guidance, as well as a number of interpretive issues, apply to companies in the media and entertainment industry. The Company has made significant progress toward completing its assessment of the impact of adopting this new guidance, and the Company is finalizing its implementation plan. The Company currently does not believe that the adoption of the new guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, principally because the Company does not expect significant changes in the way it will record subscription revenue, advertising revenue, and a significant portion of its content revenue. However, it is possible that the Company’s evaluation of the expected impact of the new guidance on certain transactions could change if there are additional interpretations of the new revenue guidance that are different from the Company’s preliminary conclusions. Although the Company currently does not expect the impact of adopting the new guidance to be material, there are several areas where the Company’s revenue recognition is expected to change as compared with historical GAAP. The more significant of these areas are as follows: i. Renewals of Licenses of Intellectual Property - Under guidance currently in effect, when the term of an existing license agreement is extended, without any other changes to the provisions of the license, revenue for the renewal period is recognized on the date the renewal is agreed to contractually. Under the new guidance, revenue for the renewed license term will not be recognized until the date the renewal term begins. This change will result in delayed revenue recognition as compared with current revenue recognition guidance. The Company expects that this change will primarily impact the Warner Bros. segment, but it will also, to a lesser degree, impact the Home Box Office and Turner segments. ii. License of Content Library - Under guidance currently in effect, when a company licenses a completed library of content and agrees to refresh the library with new content as it becomes available, and the licensee is not entitled to a refund if no further library titles are delivered, revenue is recognized once access to the library is granted to the licensee. Under the new guidance, because there is an implicit obligation for the company to refresh the library with additional content in the future, the company will need to estimate the additional content it will deliver in the future and allocate a portion of the transaction price to that content. As compared with current guidance, this results in a deferral of a portion of the transaction price until delivery of future library content. The Company expects this change will primarily impact the Home Box Office segment. iii. Licenses of Symbolic Intellectual Property - Certain intellectual property, such as brands, tradenames and logos, is categorized in the new guidance as symbolic. An assumption inherent in the new guidance is that a licensee’s ability to derive benefit from a license of symbolic intellectual property depends on the licensor continuing to support or maintain the intellectual property throughout the license term. Accordingly, under the new guidance, revenue from licenses of symbolic intellectual property is recognized over the corresponding license term. In certain arrangements where the Company has no remaining performance obligations, under the guidance currently in effect, revenue from licenses of symbolic intellectual property is recognized at the inception of the license term. Therefore, the new guidance will result in a deferral of revenue recognition as compared to current guidance. This change will primarily impact the Warner Bros. segment. The evaluation of the impact of the new guidance on certain other transactions is still in process; however, the Company does not expect the completion of that evaluation to impact the Company’s conclusion that the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company currently expects to adopt the standard in 2018 using the modified retrospective method of adoption. However, the transition method ultimately selected could be affected by the Company’s pending merger with AT&T Inc. (“AT&T”) if the merger closes prior to the adoption of the new guidance. For more information regarding the AT&T merger, see Note 2.

Merger [Abstract]
MERGER AGREEMENT WITH AT&T	MERGER AGREEMENT WITH AT&T On October 22, 2016, Time Warner entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with AT&T. The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T with and into Time Warner, with Time Warner continuing as the surviving company in the merger. Immediately thereafter, Time Warner will merge with and into a limited liability company formed by AT&T, which will continue as the surviving entity and a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by all members of Time Warner’s and AT&T’s boards of directors. Time Warner shareholders adopted the Merger Agreement at a special meeting of shareholders on February 15, 2017. Subject to the satisfaction of the remaining conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the merger, each share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into the right to receive $53.75 in cash and a specified number of shares of AT&T stock, as set forth in the Merger Agreement and determined by reference to the average of the volume weighted averages of the trading price of AT&T common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on each of the 15 consecutive NYSE trading days ending on and including the trading day that is three trading days prior to the closing of the merger (the “Average Stock Price”). The stock portion of the per share consideration will be subject to a collar such that if the Average Stock Price is between $37.411 and $41.349 , Time Warner shareholders will receive shares of AT&T stock equal to $53.75 in value for each share of Time Warner common stock. If the Average Stock Price is below $37.411 , Time Warner shareholders will receive 1.437 AT&T shares for each share of Time Warner common stock. If the Average Stock Price is an amount greater than $41.349 , Time Warner shareholders will receive 1.300 AT&T shares for each share of Time Warner common stock. The merger is conditioned on the receipt of certain antitrust and other required regulatory consents. The merger is expected to close before year-end 2017. Should Time Warner terminate the Merger Agreement in specified circumstances, Time Warner may be required to pay AT&T a termination fee equal to $1.725 billion if Time Warner enters into or consummates an alternative transaction with a third party following such termination of the Merger Agreement.

As of June 30, 2017 , the Company had an approximate 47% voting interest in Central European Media Enterprises Ltd.’s (“CME”) common stock and an approximate 76% economic interest in CME on a diluted basis. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company owned 61.4 million shares of CME’s Class A common stock and 1 share of Series A convertible preferred stock, which is convertible into 11.2 million shares of CME’s Class A common stock and votes with the Class A common stock on an as-converted basis. The Company accounts for its investment in CME’s Class A common stock and Series A convertible preferred stock under the equity method of accounting. Although the book value of the Company’s equity method investment in CME has been reduced to zero through the recognition of equity method losses, the Company has continued to record equity method losses because it has guaranteed an aggregate amount of €955 million of CME’s obligations. The amount of such equity method losses at June 30, 2017 was $107 million and is presented in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In addition, in connection with these guarantees, the Company recognized a liability at the inception of each respective arrangement based on the estimated fair value of the applicable guarantee. At June 30, 2017 , the carrying value of liabilities associated with such guarantees was $182 million , which is also included in Other noncurrent liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. In June 2017, the CME financing arrangements guaranteed by the Company were amended such that the lenders agreed that the pending merger of the Company with AT&T will not constitute an event of default under a change in control provision included in the financing arrangements, and that the loans to CME will remain outstanding following the closing of the AT&T merger. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company owned all of the outstanding shares of CME’s Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares, which are non-voting and may be converted into 107.2 million shares of CME’s Class A common stock at the Company’s option. The Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares accrete in value until June 24, 2018 at an annual rate of 3.75% compounded quarterly. The Company accounts for its investment in CME’s Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares under the cost method of accounting. As of June 30, 2017 , the Company held 101 million warrants each to purchase one share of CME Class A common stock. The warrants, which became exercisable in May 2016, have a four -year term that expires in May 2018 and an exercise price of $1.00 per share and do not contain any voting rights. The warrants are carried at fair value in Investments, including available-for-sale securities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, which at June 30, 2017 , was $304 million . As of June 30, 2017 , there were no amounts outstanding under the $115 million revolving credit facility Time Warner provided CME in 2014. On March 2, 2017, Time Warner, CME and CME Media Enterprises B.V. (“CME BV”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CME, entered into an amendment (the “2017 Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Reimbursement Agreement, dated as of November 14, 2014, and as amended and restated as of February 19, 2016. Effective March 1, 2017, the 2017 Amendment reduced the guarantee fees payable by CME and CME BV to Time Warner for Time Warner’s guarantees of CME’s obligations under its €251 million senior unsecured term loan that matures on November 1, 2018 and its €235 million senior unsecured term loan that matures on November 1, 2019 as well as CME BV’s obligation under its €469 million senior unsecured term loan that matures on February 19, 2021. The reduced fee to be paid to Time Warner for each of these guarantees is equal to a rate (the “all-in” rate) ranging between 5% and 8.5% , measured quarterly based on CME’s consolidated net leverage ratio, less the interest rate on the term loans. A portion of the fee equal to 5.0% less the interest rate on the term loans is payable in cash by CME and CME BV and the remainder may be payable in cash or in kind, at CME’s option. The 2017 Amendment also provides that if CME’s consolidated debt level is less than €815 million by September 30, 2018, the all-in rate will be decreased further by 50 basis points. In addition, if there is a change in control of CME, the all-in rate will increase to the lower of (i) the then applicable guarantee fee payable to Time Warner plus 3.5% and (ii) 10.0% on the date that is 180 days following such change of control. The 2017 Amendment did not affect the terms of the guarantees the Company provided to CME’s and CME BV’s lenders under the term loans.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT A fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tiered hierarchy draws distinctions between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2) and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). The following table presents information about assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively (millions): June 30, 2017 December 31, 2016 Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Assets: Trading securities: Diversified equity securities (a) $ 158 $ — $ — $ 158 $ 163 $ — $ — $ 163 Available-for-sale securities: Equity securities 16 — — 16 17 — — 17 Debt securities — 36 — 36 — 37 — 37 Derivatives: Foreign exchange contracts — 32 — 32 — 153 — 153 Other — — 305 305 — — 161 161 Liabilities: Derivatives: Foreign exchange contracts — (5 ) — (5 ) — (9 ) — (9 ) Other — — (1 ) (1 ) — — — — Total $ 174 $ 63 $ 304 $ 541 $ 180 $ 181 $ 161 $ 522 _________________________ (a) Consists of investments related to deferred compensation. The Company primarily applies the market approach for valuing recurring fair value measurements. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , assets valued using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) primarily related to warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock of CME valued at $304 million and $159 million , respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of these warrants using a Monte Carlo Simulation model. Significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement at June 30, 2017 are an expected term of 0.58 years and an expected volatility of approximately 42% . As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the other Level 3 assets consisted of equity instruments held by employees of a former subsidiary of the Company. As of June 30, 2017 , Level 3 liabilities consisted of a liability related to contingent consideration. The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of net derivative assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 and identifies the total gains (losses) the Company recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 on such assets and liabilities that were included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 (millions): June 30, 2017 June 30, 2016 Balance as of the beginning of the period $ 161 $ 173 Total gains (losses), net: Included in operating income — 2 Included in other income (loss), net 145 (62 ) Included in other comprehensive income (loss) — — Purchases — — Settlements (1 ) 5 Issuances (1 ) — Balance as of the end of the period $ 304 $ 118 Net gain (loss) for the period included in net income related to assets and liabilities still held as of the end of the period $ 145 $ (62 ) Other Financial Instruments The Company’s other financial instruments, including debt, are not required to be carried at fair value. Based on the interest rates prevailing at June 30, 2017 , the fair value of Time Warner’s public debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2.619 billion and, based on interest rates prevailing at December 31, 2016 , the fair value of Time Warner’s public debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2.238 billion . The fair value of Time Warner’s public debt is considered a Level 2 measurement as it is based on observable market inputs such as current interest rates and, where available, actual sales transactions. Unrealized gains or losses on debt do not result in the realization or expenditure of cash and generally are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements unless the debt is retired prior to its maturity. Information as of June 30, 2017 about the Company’s investments in CME that are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis is as follows (millions): Carrying Value Fair Value Fair Value Hierarchy Class A common stock (a) $ — $ 290 Level 1 Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares $ — $ 429 Level 2 _________________________ (a) Includes 1 share of Series A convertible preferred stock. The fair values of the Company’s investments in CME’s Class A common stock (including Series A convertible preferred stock) and Series B convertible redeemable preferred shares are primarily determined by reference to the June 30, 2017 closing price of CME’s common stock. The carrying value for the majority of the Company’s other financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments or because the financial instruments are of a longer-term nature and are recorded on a discounted basis. Non-Financial Instruments The majority of the Company’s non-financial instruments, which include goodwill, intangible assets, inventories and property, plant and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), a non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment. If the Company determines that the non-financial instrument is impaired, the Company would be required to write down the non-financial instrument to its fair value. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016 , the Company also performed fair value measurements related to certain theatrical films and television programs. In determining the fair value of its theatrical films, the Company employs a DCF methodology that includes cash flow estimates of a film’s ultimate revenue and costs as well as a discount rate. The discount rate utilized in the DCF analysis is based on the weighted average cost of capital of the respective business (e.g., Warner Bros.) plus a risk premium representing the risk associated with producing a particular theatrical film. The fair value of any theatrical films and television programs that management plans to abandon is zero . Because the primary determination of fair value is made using a DCF model, the resulting fair value is considered a Level 3 measurement. The following table presents certain theatrical film and television production costs, which were recorded as inventory in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, that were written down to fair value (millions): Carrying value before write down Carrying value after write down Fair value measurements made during the three months ended June 30,: 2017 $ 6 $ — 2016 $ 34 $ 1 Fair value measurements made during the six months ended June 30,: 2017 $ 57 $ 30 2016 $ 62 $ 3

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES	DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES Time Warner uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, to manage the risk associated with the volatility of future cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and changes in fair value resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The principal currencies being hedged include the British Pound, Euro, Australian Dollar and Canadian Dollar. Time Warner uses foreign exchange contracts that generally have maturities of three to 18 months to hedge various foreign exchange exposures, including the following: (i) variability in foreign-currency-denominated cash flows, such as the hedges of unremitted or forecasted royalty and license fees owed to Time Warner’s domestic companies for the sale or anticipated sale of U.S. copyrighted products abroad or cash flows for certain film production costs denominated in a foreign currency (i.e., cash flow hedges), and (ii) currency risk associated with foreign-currency-denominated operating assets and liabilities (i.e., fair value hedges). The Company also enters into derivative contracts that economically hedge certain of its foreign currency risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. These economic hedges are used primarily to offset the change in certain foreign-currency-denominated intercompany debt due to changes in the underlying foreign exchange rates. The translation of revenues and expenses denominated in the functional currency of a foreign subsidiary may result in fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar-equivalent value of such revenues and expenses as compared to prior periods. Such transactions are not eligible for qualifying hedge accounting treatment, and the Company does not economically hedge this exposure. Net gains and losses from hedging activities recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Operations were as follows (millions): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Gains (losses) recognized in: Cost of revenues $ (15 ) $ — $ (16 ) $ 9 Selling, general and administrative (9 ) 2 (12 ) 5 Other income (loss), net 15 (2 ) 16 — Amounts included in Other income (loss), net include the impact of forward points and option premiums, which are excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Other amounts included in Other income (loss), net relate to hedge of foreign-currency-denominated debt and hedge ineffectiveness, which are not material. The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are party to its financial transactions and has entered into collateral agreements with these counterparties to further protect the Company in the event of deterioration of the credit quality of such counterparties on outstanding transactions. Additionally, netting provisions are included in agreements in situations where the Company executes multiple contracts with the same counterparty. For such foreign exchange contracts, the Company offsets the fair values of the amounts owed to or due from the same counterparty and classifies the net amount as a net asset or net liability within Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The following is a summary of amounts recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet pertaining to Time Warner’s use of foreign currency derivatives at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 (millions): June 30, December 31, Prepaid expenses and other current assets $ 32 $ 153 Accounts payable and accrued liabilities (5 ) (9 ) ________________________ (a) Includes $99 million ( $93 million of qualifying hedges and $6 million of economic hedges) and $72 million ( $68 million of qualifying hedges and $4 million of economic hedges) of foreign exchange derivative contracts in asset and liability positions, respectively. (b) Includes $297 million ( $272 million of qualifying hedges and $25 million of economic hedges) and $153 million ( $141 million of qualifying hedges and $12 million of economic hedges) of foreign exchange derivative contracts in asset and liability positions, respectively. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , $8 million of losses and $46 million of gains, respectively, related to cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net and are expected to be recognized in earnings at the same time the hedged items affect earnings. Included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 are net gains of $8 million and net losses of $3 million , respectively, related to hedges of cash flows associated with films that are not expected to be released within the next twelve months. At June 30, 2017 , the carrying amount of the Company’s €700 million aggregate principal amount of debt due 2023 is designated as a hedge of the variability in the Company’s Euro-denominated net investments. The gain or loss on the debt that is designated as, and is effective as, an economic hedge of the net investment in a foreign operation is recorded as a currency translation adjustment within Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 , such amounts totaled $38 million and $51 million of losses , respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 , such amounts totaled $10 million and $17 million of losses , respectively.

Segment Information

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
SEGMENT INFORMATION	SEGMENT INFORMATION Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Turner : consisting principally of cable networks and digital media properties; Home Box Office : consisting principally of premium pay television and OTT services domestically and premium pay, basic tier television and OTT services internationally; and Warner Bros. : consisting principally of television, feature film, home video and videogame production and distribution. Time Warner’s reportable segments have been determined in accordance with its internal management structure and the financial information that is evaluated regularly by the Company’s chief operating decision maker. In the ordinary course of business, Time Warner’s reportable segments enter into transactions with one another. The most common types of intersegment transactions include the Warner Bros. segment generating revenues by licensing television and theatrical programming to the Turner and Home Box Office segments. While intersegment transactions are treated like third-party transactions to determine segment performance, the revenues (and corresponding expenses or assets recognized by the segment that is the counterparty to the transaction) are eliminated in consolidation and, therefore, do not affect consolidated results. Information as to the Revenues, intersegment revenues, Operating Income (Loss) and Assets of Time Warner’s reportable segments is set forth below (millions): Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Revenues Turner $ 3,102 $ 3,010 $ 6,190 $ 5,916 Home Box Office 1,476 1,467 3,044 2,973 Warner Bros. 2,988 2,658 6,353 5,767 Intersegment eliminations (236 ) (183 ) (522 ) (396 ) Total revenues $ 7,330 $ 6,952 $ 15,065 $ 14,260 Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Intersegment Revenues Turner $ 29 $ 34 $ 50 $ 54 Home Box Office 3 2 5 5 Warner Bros. 204 147 467 337 Total intersegment revenues $ 236 $ 183 $ 522 $ 396 Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 Operating Income (Loss) Turner $ 1,050 $ 1,130 $ 2,220 $ 2,369 Home Box Office 531 481 1,114 958 Warner Bros. 223 308 711 732 Corporate (128 ) (95 ) (242 ) (235 ) Intersegment eliminations 16 22 (35 ) 18 Total operating income $ 1,692 $ 1,846 $ 3,768 $ 3,842 June 30, 2017 December 31, Assets Turner $ 26,708 $ 26,317 Home Box Office 14,734 14,636 Warner Bros. 20,842 21,550 Corporate 3,812 3,463 Total assets $ 66,096 $ 65,966

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Commitments Six Flags In connection with the Company’s former investment in the Six Flags theme parks located in Georgia and Texas (collectively, the “Parks”), in 1997, certain subsidiaries of the Company (including Historic TW and, in connection with the separation of Time Warner Cable Inc. in 2009, Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.) agreed to guarantee (the “Six Flags Guarantee”) certain obligations of the partnerships that hold the Parks (the “Partnerships”) for the benefit of the limited partners in such Partnerships, including: annual payments made at the Parks or to the limited partners and additional obligations at the end of the respective terms for the Partnerships in 2027 and 2028 (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The aggregate undiscounted estimated future cash flow requirements covered by the Six Flags Guarantee over the remaining term (through 2028) are $928 million (for a net present value of $467 million ). To date, no payments have been made by the Company pursuant to the Six Flags Guarantee. Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (formerly known as Six Flags, Inc. and Premier Parks Inc.) (“Six Flags”), which has the controlling interest in the Parks, has agreed, pursuant to a subordinated indemnity agreement (the “Subordinated Indemnity Agreement”), to guarantee the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations when due and to indemnify Historic TW, among others, if the Six Flags Guarantee is called upon. If Six Flags defaults in its indemnification obligations, Historic TW has the right to acquire control of the managing partner of the Parks. Six Flags’ obligations to Historic TW are further secured by its interest in all limited partnership units held by Six Flags. Because the Six Flags Guarantee existed prior to December 31, 2002 and no modifications to the arrangements have been made since the date the guarantee came into existence, the Company is required to continue to account for the Guaranteed Obligations as a contingent liability. Based on its evaluation of the current facts and circumstances surrounding the Guaranteed Obligations and the Subordinated Indemnity Agreement, the Company is unable to predict the loss, if any, that may be incurred under the Guaranteed Obligations, and no liability for the arrangements has been recognized at June 30, 2017 . Because of the specific circumstances surrounding the arrangements and the fact that no active or observable market exists for this type of financial guarantee, the Company is unable to determine a current fair value for the Guaranteed Obligations and related Subordinated Indemnity Agreement. Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in or parties to various legal claims, actions and proceedings. These claims, actions and proceedings are at varying stages of investigation, arbitration or adjudication, and involve a variety of areas of law. On April 4, 2007, the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) issued a complaint against CNN America Inc. (“CNN America”) and Team Video Services, LLC (“Team Video”) related to CNN America’s December 2003 and January 2004 terminations of its contractual relationships with Team Video, under which Team Video had provided electronic news gathering services in Washington, D.C. and New York, NY. The National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians, under which Team Video’s employees were unionized, initially filed charges of unfair labor practices with the NLRB in February 2004, alleging that CNN America and Team Video were joint employers, that CNN America was a successor employer to Team Video, and/or that CNN America discriminated in its hiring practices to avoid becoming a successor employer or due to specific individuals’ union affiliation or activities. In the complaint, the NLRB sought, among other things, the reinstatement of certain union members and monetary damages. On November 19, 2008, the presiding NLRB Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) issued a non-binding recommended decision and order finding CNN America liable. On September 15, 2014, a three-member panel of the NLRB affirmed the ALJ’s decision and adopted the ALJ’s order with certain modifications. On November 12, 2014, both CNN America and the NLRB General Counsel filed motions with the NLRB for reconsideration of the panel’s decision. On March 20, 2015, the NLRB granted the NLRB General Counsel’s motion for reconsideration to correct certain inadvertent errors in the panel’s decision, and it denied CNN America’s motion for reconsideration. On July 9, 2015, CNN America filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit regarding the panel’s decision and the denial of CNN America’s motion for reconsideration; on February 23, 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit heard oral argument from the parties on CNN America’s appeal. The Company establishes an accrued liability for legal claims when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters. The Company has estimated a range of possible loss for legal claims for which the Company has determined a loss is probable or reasonably possible, including the matter disclosed above. The Company believes the estimate of the aggregate range of possible loss for such matters in excess of accrued liabilities is between $0 and $100 million at June 30, 2017 . The estimated aggregate range of possible loss is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions. The matters represented in the estimated aggregate range of possible loss will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and claims, the Company often cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter may be. An adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period. Income Tax Uncertainties During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recorded net increases to income tax reserves of approximately $11 million . Increases to income tax reserves of approximately $18 million impacted the Company’s effective tax rate. During the six months ended June 30, 2017 , the Company recorded net increases to interest reserves related to the income tax reserves of approximately $27 million . In the Company’s judgment, uncertainties related to certain tax matters are reasonably possible of being resolved during the next twelve months. The effect of such resolution, which could vary based on the final terms and timing of actual settlements with taxing authorities, is estimated to be a reduction of recorded unrecognized tax benefits ranging from $0 to $270 million , which would decrease the Company’s effective tax rate.

(“CBS”) and The National Collegiate Athletic Association (the “NCAA”). For the Company’s collaborative arrangements entered into with third parties to jointly finance and distribute theatrical productions, net participation costs of $43 million and $45 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $136 million and $118 million were recorded in Costs of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. The arrangement among Turner, CBS and the NCAA provides Turner and CBS with rights to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship Tournament (the “NCAA Tournament”) in the United States and its territories and possessions through 2032. The aggregate rights fee, production costs, advertising revenues and sponsorship revenues related to the NCAA Tournament and related programming are shared by Turner and CBS. However, if the amount paid for the rights fee and production costs, in any given year, exceeds advertising and sponsorship revenues for that year, CBS’ share of such shortfall is limited to specified annual amounts, ranging from approximately $30 million to $45 million .

Condensed Financial Information of Parent Company Only Disclosure [Abstract]
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION - CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS	Overview Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of (i) Time Warner Inc. (the “Parent Company”), (ii) Historic TW Inc. (in its own capacity and as successor by merger to Time Warner Companies, Inc.), Home Box Office, Inc., and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Company (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”), on a combined basis, (iii) the direct and indirect non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company (the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”), on a combined basis, and (iv) the eliminations necessary to arrive at the information for Time Warner Inc. on a consolidated basis. The Guarantor Subsidiaries fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally guarantee securities issued under certain of the Company’s indentures on an unsecured basis. There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Company’s ability to obtain funds from any of its wholly owned subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances. Basis of Presentation In presenting the condensed consolidating financial statements, the equity method of accounting has been applied to (i) the Parent Company’s interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ interests in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been eliminated, as shown in the column “Eliminations.” The Parent Company’s accounting bases in all subsidiaries, including goodwill and identified intangible assets, have been “pushed down” to the applicable subsidiaries. Corporate overhead expenses have been reflected as expenses of the Parent Company and have not been allocated to the Guarantor Subsidiaries or the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Interest income (expense) is determined based on outstanding debt and the relevant intercompany amounts at the respective subsidiary. All direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries are included in Time Warner Inc.’s consolidated U.S. tax return. In the condensed consolidating financial statements, tax provision has been allocated based on each such subsidiary’s relative pretax income to the consolidated pretax income. With respect to the use of certain consolidated tax attributes (principally operating and capital loss carryforwards), such benefits have been allocated to the respective subsidiary that generated the taxable income permitting such use (i.e., pro-rata based on where the income was generated). For example, to the extent a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary generated a gain on the sale of a business for which the Parent Company utilized tax attributes to offset such gain, the tax attribute benefit would be allocated to that Non-Guarantor Subsidiary. Deferred taxes of the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been determined based on the temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the respective assets and liabilities of the applicable entities. Certain transfers of cash between subsidiaries and their parent companies and intercompany dividends are reflected as cash flows from investing and financing activities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows. All other intercompany activity is reflected in cash flows from operations. Management believes that the allocations and adjustments noted above are reasonable. However, such allocations and adjustments may not be indicative of the actual amounts that would have been incurred had the Parent Company, Guarantor Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries operated independently.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Consolidation	Basis of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include all the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of entities in which Time Warner has a controlling interest (“subsidiaries”). Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated entities have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and judgments inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include accounting for asset impairments, multiple-element transactions, allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, the determination of ultimate revenues as it relates to amortization or impairment of capitalized film and programming costs and participations and residuals, home video and videogame product returns, business combinations, pension and other postretirement benefits, equity-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies, litigation matters, reporting revenue for certain transactions on a gross versus net basis, and the determination of whether the Company should consolidate certain entities.
New Accounting Guidance	Accounting Guidance Adopted in 2017 Share-Based Payments On January 1, 2017, the Company adopted, on a prospective basis, new accounting guidance that changes the reporting for certain aspects of share-based payments. One aspect of the guidance requires that the income tax effects of share-based awards be recognized in the Income tax provision in the Consolidated Statement of Operations when the awards vest or are settled. Under the previous guidance, excess tax benefits and deficiencies were recognized in Additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the amount of excess tax benefits, net of deficiencies, recognized in Income tax provision and Additional paid-in capital, respectively, was $98 million and $35 million , respectively. In addition, because excess tax benefits are no longer recognized in Additional paid-in capital under the new guidance, such amounts are no longer included in the determination of assumed proceeds in applying the treasury stock method when computing earnings per share. Another aspect of the new guidance requires that excess tax benefits be classified as a cash flow from operating activities, rather than a cash flow from financing activities, in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 , the amount of excess tax benefits presented as a cash flow from operating activities and financing activities, respectively, was $98 million and $40 million , respectively. The other aspects of the new guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted Modification of Share-Based Payments In May 2017, guidance was issued that clarifies when changes to the terms and conditions of share-based awards must be accounted for as modifications. The guidance does not change the accounting treatment for modifications. The guidance, which will become effective on a prospective basis on January 1, 2018, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Net Periodic Benefit Costs In March 2017, guidance was issued that requires that an employer disaggregate the service cost component from the other components of net periodic benefit costs relating to defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. While the service cost component of net periodic benefit costs will continue to be presented as an operating expense, the other components are now required to be recorded outside of operating income in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 2016 , net periodic benefit costs relating to defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans were $46 million , $4 million of which related to the service cost component. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018. Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, guidance was issued to simplify the accounting for goodwill impairment. The guidance removes the second step of the goodwill impairment test, which requires that a hypothetical purchase price allocation be performed to determine the amount of impairment, if any. Under this new guidance, a goodwill impairment charge will be based on the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. The guidance will become effective on a prospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2020 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Definition of a Business In January 2017, guidance was issued that changes the definition of a business for accounting purposes. Under the new guidance, an entity first determines whether substantially all of the fair value of a set of assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If this threshold is met, the set of assets is not deemed to be a business. If the threshold is not met, the entity then evaluates whether the set of assets meets the requirement to be deemed a business, which at a minimum, requires there to be an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The guidance will become effective on a prospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Restricted Cash In November 2016, guidance was issued that requires that a statement of cash flows present the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total cash amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other than Inventory In October 2016, guidance was issued that requires entities to recognize the income tax consequences of an intercompany transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs, rather than deferring the income tax consequences of the intercompany transfer of assets until the asset has been sold to a third party. The guidance will become effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, guidance was issued that clarifies the presentation of certain cash receipts and payments in a company’s statement of cash flows. The guidance primarily relates to the classification of cash flows associated with certain (i) debt transactions, (ii) contingent consideration arrangements related to business combinations, (iii) insurance claims and policies, (iv) distributions received from equity method investees and (v) securitization transactions. The guidance will become effective on a retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018 and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Accounting for Leases In February 2016, guidance was issued regarding accounting for leases. The main difference between the current guidance and the new guidance is the recognition by the lessee of lease assets and liabilities for those leases it classified as operating leases under the current guidance. Under the new guidance, the recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease as well as the lessor accounting model have not significantly changed from current guidance. This guidance also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures of key information about leasing arrangements. The new guidance will become effective on a modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2019. The Company is still evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements. Because the Company is a party to more than 2,000 operating leases with future minimum rental commitments at December 31, 2016 of $1.154 billion , it expects that the impact of recognizing lease assets and liabilities for these operating leases will be significant to the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Liabilities In January 2016, guidance was issued that makes limited changes to the accounting for financial instruments. The changes primarily relate to (i) the requirement to measure equity investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, at fair value, with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings, (ii) an alternative approach for the measurement of equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value, (iii) the elimination of the other-than-temporary impairment model and its replacement with a requirement to perform a qualitative assessment to identify the impairment of equity investments, and a requirement to recognize impairment losses in earnings based on the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the equity investment, (iv) the elimination of the requirement to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost, (v) the addition of a requirement to use the exit price concept when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes and (vi) the addition of a requirement to present financial assets and financial liabilities separately in the notes to the financial statements, grouped by measurement category (e.g., fair value, amortized cost, lower of cost or market) and by form of financial asset (e.g., loans, securities). This guidance will become effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company does not expect the new guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition In May 2014, guidance was issued that establishes a new revenue recognition framework in GAAP for all companies and industries. The core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue from the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to receive for those goods or services. The guidance includes a five-step framework to determine the timing and amount of revenue to recognize related to contracts with customers. In addition, this guidance requires new or expanded disclosures related to the judgments made by companies when following this framework. Based on the current guidance, the new framework will become effective on either a full or modified retrospective basis for the Company on January 1, 2018. Subsequent to the issuance of the May 2014 guidance, several clarifications and updates have been issued by the FASB on this topic, the most recent of which was issued in December 2016. Many of these clarifications and updates to the guidance, as well as a number of interpretive issues, apply to companies in the media and entertainment industry. The Company has made significant progress toward completing its assessment of the impact of adopting this new guidance, and the Company is finalizing its implementation plan. The Company currently does not believe that the adoption of the new guidance will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements, principally because the Company does not expect significant changes in the way it will record subscription revenue, advertising revenue, and a significant portion of its content revenue. However, it is possible that the Company’s evaluation of the expected impact of the new guidance on certain transactions could change if there are additional interpretations of the new revenue guidance that are different from the Company’s preliminary conclusions. Although the Company currently does not expect the impact of adopting the new guidance to be material, there are several areas where the Company’s revenue recognition is expected to change as compared with historical GAAP. The more significant of these areas are as follows: i. Renewals of Licenses of Intellectual Property - Under guidance currently in effect, when the term of an existing license agreement is extended, without any other changes to the provisions of the license, revenue for the renewal period is recognized on the date the renewal is agreed to contractually. Under the new guidance, revenue for the renewed license term will not be recognized until the date the renewal term begins. This change will result in delayed revenue recognition as compared with current revenue recognition guidance. The Company expects that this change will primarily impact the Warner Bros. segment, but it will also, to a lesser degree, impact the Home Box Office and Turner segments. ii. License of Content Library - Under guidance currently in effect, when a company licenses a completed library of content and agrees to refresh the library with new content as it becomes available, and the licensee is not entitled to a refund if no further library titles are delivered, revenue is recognized once access to the library is granted to the licensee. Under the new guidance, because there is an implicit obligation for the company to refresh the library with additional content in the future, the company will need to estimate the additional content it will deliver in the future and allocate a portion of the transaction price to that content. As compared with current guidance, this results in a deferral of a portion of the transaction price until delivery of future library content. The Company expects this change will primarily impact the Home Box Office segment. iii. Licenses of Symbolic Intellectual Property - Certain intellectual property, such as brands, tradenames and logos, is categorized in the new guidance as symbolic. An assumption inherent in the new guidance is that a licensee’s ability to derive benefit from a license of symbolic intellectual property depends on the licensor continuing to support or maintain the intellectual property throughout the license term. Accordingly, under the new guidance, revenue from licenses of symbolic intellectual property is recognized over the corresponding license term. In certain arrangements where the Company has no remaining performance obligations, under the guidance currently in effect, revenue from licenses of symbolic intellectual property is recognized at the inception of the license term. Therefore, the new guidance will result in a deferral of revenue recognition as compared to current guidance. This change will primarily impact the Warner Bros. segment. The evaluation of the impact of the new guidance on certain other transactions is still in process; however, the Company does not expect the completion of that evaluation to impact the Company’s conclusion that the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. The Company currently expects to adopt the standard in 2018 using the modified retrospective method of adoption. However, the transition method ultimately selected could be affected by the Company’s pending merger with AT&T Inc. (“AT&T”) if the merger closes prior to the adoption of the new guidance. For more information regarding the AT&T merger, see Note 2.
Long-Lived Assets	The majority of the Company’s non-financial instruments, which include goodwill, intangible assets, inventories and property, plant and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets), a non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment. If the Company determines that the non-financial instrument is impaired, the Company would be required to write down the non-financial instrument to its fair value.
Cost of Sales	In determining the fair value of its theatrical films, the Company employs a DCF methodology that includes cash flow estimates of a film’s ultimate revenue and costs as well as a discount rate. The discount rate utilized in the DCF analysis is based on the weighted average cost of capital of the respective business (e.g., Warner Bros.) plus a risk premium representing the risk associated with producing a particular theatrical film. The fair value of any theatrical films and television programs that management plans to abandon is zero . Because the primary determination of fair value is made using a DCF model, the resulting fair value is considered a Level 3 measurement.
Derivatives, Offsetting Fair Value Amounts	For such foreign exchange contracts, the Company offsets the fair values of the amounts owed to or due from the same counterparty and classifies the net amount as a net asset or net liability within Prepaid expenses and other current assets or Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
