Bezos and Zuckerberg's million dollar payments to Trump, Joe & Mika going down to MAL to kiss the ring, CNN making Trump appendage Scott Jennings the face of its coverage, and now ABC handing Trump $15 million for a hugely winnable defamation case. Is all of legacy media going to kowtow to Trump?

Some work-related news: 16-plus years after my last book (on cybersecurity), I just signed a deal with a publisher for another -- this time on AI, agents, and the workplace. Currently crafting an outline and starting to compile research. The preliminary publication date is for Spring 2025.
