As someone who is a fan of WB's animation output, I'm furious at the LA times for going for the leopards eating people's faces party on this.

Zaslav does not understand the Biz. He understands business, but not Show Business. He seems to be determined to kill Warner Bros. before the venerable studio hits its 101st. anniversary.

Zaslav is a designated whipping boy for the larger financial interests in studio conglomerates. He exists to be brazenly destructive in service to them.

I know little about the story, but ecologically I've heard that termites can be 'earthworms of the desert' and indicate life through seeing decomposition...

THANK YOU. Holy shit. The more we diversify the entertainment industry in terms of risk mitigation, the more shaky and vulnerable our ethics become. Predators like Zaslav are sharks, smelling that blood in the water and swooping in for a quick meal at the expense of all that is good.

Learning that Zazlav was responsible for taking a channel that literally had "Learning" in its name and turning it into what TLC is today was pretty much all the context I needed to understand who he is and what he's doing to a studio with WB's legacy.

He said in an interview he was "inspired" to get into the entertainment industry after seeing an old photo of Louis B. Mayer sitting behind a huge expensive desk with multiple telephones in front of him. Not, "I love movies and wanted to make great movies people will love for generations."

There were articles YEARS ago about how he had been planning on selling off WBD quickly after the merger was completed, but he hadn’t bothered to consider that there aren’t very many companies big enough to acquire something that size. He isn’t actually all that bright and it’s not subtle.
