Sign Language Interpreter Spotted!
So you saw a sign language interpreter on the television news (or maybe at a music concert). Congratulations on stumbling upon this…

THE BOOK OF ELI is currently the #1 featured movie on Max which is great. Not so great? The writing credit still lists three people who were not writers of the film, while omitting me, the sole writer of the film.

School libraries don't need you to donate copies of banned books. They need you to step up and run for the school board so the books don't get banned in the first place.

very excited for AI journalists to do big feature profiles on the next AI movie star, and for AI movies to win awards chosen through an AI committee of critics that is really just three algorithms stacked on top of each other in a trench coat

It's possible that the recent rise in teen suicides is entirely due to changes in reporting standards.

A super fun thing to do when the news mentions 'a study' or 'scientists' saying something is actually track down the thing and then find out who paid for it.

Stop blaming strikes for economic damage. Strikes are a logical response to overreach and greed from corporations and the wealthy. If there is resulting economic damage, look to those who drove the workers to strike in the first instance.

The 13 CEOs at 12 media companies (Netflix has co-CEOs) average about $32 million in compensation each per year, with a few hitting over $50 mil.
The the increase that the WGA is asking for —the total amount for all 11,500 WGA members—is less than what these guys make together.
