Even though AT&T is playing off the delay in the merger as a reason for the failure it’s clear that owning Time Warner was a bad move from the beginning. One key takeaway is that WBD’s current strategy seems to be what Time Warner was doing pre-AT&T, with tighter budgets.
If this article intended to warm us to WBD and see them as the savior in this that is not how I feel. WBD has a huge task ahead of them, and they’ve got a lot of properties to make whole and relevant again. I don’t see CNN being a front runner in that priority list.

Pam Brown could definitely be a contender for a dayside shift (maybe paired with Jim Sciutto) so hopefully she’s okay and her absence is for positive reasons.

Using the same brick set and background from New Day Weekend, which you’re trying to distance yourself from, is a choice.(19-11-2022, 02:14 PM)Newsroom Wrote:Would love to have Newsroom pivot more back to Atlanta.
Regarding moving back to Atlanta, it makes more sense to move Amara to DC at this point. Either way, CTMW needs to be fully in Atlanta or DC to end this dual city nonsense.
