For friends in the U.S., this is about the same as if the EU decided to pull apart the United States by actively supporting every loon in California, Texas, and any other state with any interest of leaving the union. Both overtly and covertly.

Apparently it can always get worse. The full version of the new U.S. National Security Strategy, aptly named “NSC-1488” by the wags, calls for actively pulling Poland, Austria, Hungary and Italy from the #EU. And supporting far right.

Have we considered the possibility that Jack Warner vowed on his deathbed that, “If I can’t have it, no one can,” and has cursed the corporate lineage from beyond? Because on a lot of levels, that tracks.
Great piece, though I can't help feeling that the history of Warner Bros tells us that the answer is not 'Netflix or Paramount', but 'Paramount, then Netflix for, ooh, $70bn in 2034':
