Not anymore, with the association on Monday launching its first-everPSA . Industry partners Comcast NBCU, Cox, Discovery, Charter Spectrum and Turner have committed to supporting the spot with more than $6mln in airtime and others are expected to air it as well. There’s also a months-long digital campaign, #LeadWithMore, that runs through June 4. The PSA, produced by Cox at its HQ, features Turner evp, global HRO Angela Santone, Cox technology engineering and operations vp Toni Stubbs, Charter’s Kelly Atkinson, head of Spectrum marketing, consumer & SMB, and Comcast-NBCU’s Noopur Davis, svp, chief product and information se- curity officer, as well as young female actresses who portray the execs as children. “For 40 years, we have helped women lead and grow. There’s so much we can do together,” WICT pres/CEO Maria Brennan concludes in the spot, which directs viewers to leadwithmore.com. In addition to celebrating WICT’s 40th anniversary, the website serves as a way to find open jobs within the industry. That call to action is a key part of WICT’s message. “We are urging businesses in this coun- try to recruit, retain and promote women.

  • Sports & Entertainment Law Journal Arizona State
    SPORTS & ENTERTAINMENT LAW JOURNAL ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY VOLUME 9 FALL 2019 ISSUE 1 MEDIA MOGULS RISKING IT ALL: CONTRACT CLAUSES IN THE ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS IN THE AGE OF #METOO RICK G. MORRIS* ABSTRACT This article explores the ability of entertainment companies to respond to the salacious misconduct or bad behavior of their talent and leaders through the perspectives of corporate ownership, impacted employees, business partners, and the victims of the misconduct. The article examines the history of social trouble in the media caused at both the individual and corporate level, and how such social trouble can lead to irreparable reputational and financial damage. This article proposes that entertainment companies should consistently implement and apply morals clauses in talent and leadership contracts as a solution to this post-Weinstein problem. While morals clauses can be wielded as a sword against risky talent, this article identifies three challenges that morals clauses face including pushback from unions, negotiations to soften morals clauses, and the prior status quo that permitted free speech and industry practices to rationalize and ignore misconduct. Finally, this article will urge entertainment companies to be proactive in protecting their reputation, their employees, and their very * Rick G.

  • Kevin Tsujihara Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Warner Bros
    KEVIN TSUJIHARA CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER WARNER BROS. As Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Warner Bros., Kevin Tsujihara oversees worldwide operations, including the production, marketing and distribution of film, television and video games, for one of the most innovative and successful entertainment companies in the world. Combining a strong entrepreneurial spirit with the resources of a storied Hollywood studio, Tsujihara is focused on making Warner Bros. technologically innovative, astute and nimble in a rapidly evolving marketplace, while honoring its almost-100-year history. Warner Bros., a WarnerMedia company, is a global leader in every type of entertainment and their related businesses, across all current and emerging media and platforms. Under Tsujihara’s leadership, Warner Bros. is the only studio with leading positions in film, television and videogames, as well as highly successful home entertainment and consumer products divisions. Warner Bros. is also home to DC Entertainment, creator of the world’s most popular and valuable superheroes. Tsujihara identified DC as a priority when he became CEO, and today, DC’s characters and stories drive every business in which the Studio operates, generating billions in revenue. Reflecting the Studio’s global perspective, Tsujihara has also made diversity and inclusion a companywide business imperative, working to create a workforce and a roster of film, TV and digital content that reflect the diverse global audience Warner Bros. serves. Under Tsujihara’s leadership, Warner Bros. had its most profitable year ever in 2017, driven by outstanding performance across the company, including its television, film, videogame and consumer products operations. These results follow record success and profitability in both 2015 and 2016.

  • To Say the Entertainment Industry Has Changed Since Kevin Tsujihara Became Chief Executive of Film and TV Studio Warner Bros
    To say the entertainment industry has changed since Kevin Tsujihara became chief executive of film and TV studio Warner Bros. in 2013 would be an understatement. Netflix Inc. has become a disruptive force in film and television. Walt Disney Co. is about to become an even bigger giant when it absorbs much of 21st Century Fox and launches its own streaming service. Warner Bros. itself, at nearly a century old, is adjusting to new ownership under Dallas telecom behemoth AT&T Inc., which bought Time Warner Inc. (now called WarnerMedia) for $85.4 billion last year. Tsujihara, 54, appears unfazed. The studio is coming off a strong year at the box office, grossing $5.6 billion globally with hits including “A Star Is Born” (which won the Oscar for best original song) and “Crazy Rich Asians.” The DC superhero film franchise made a comeback with “Aquaman,” following the struggles of 2017’s “Justice League.” Warner Bros.’ television division found success with “Manifest” on NBC and “The Kominsky Method” on Netflix. Big challenges loom. AT&T and WarnerMedia are building a subscription streaming offering to launch late this year, relying on Warner Bros. content in a crowded market. Some of their franchise films have disappointed at the box office. To remain competitive, Warner Bros. recently signed major deals with filmmakers and show runners including Greg Berlanti and Ava DuVernay. The studio also last year launched a new diversity policy, starting with Michael B. Jordan’s upcoming film “Just Mercy.” Tsujihara spoke with The Times at Warner Bros.’ headquarters in Burbank. This interview was edited for length and clarity.

Taking the rubber band off the paper Slade and sitting back in a chair to read the news- paper was the current method of getting caught up on all the news, both local and worldwide. Certainly radio stations, then mostly on the AM dial, fought for their news market share as well against the news- papers reporters — then simply know as "The Press."

  • Why No Wonder Woman?
    Why No Wonder Woman? A REPORT ON THE HISTORY OF WONDER WOMAN AND A CALL TO ACTION!! Created for Wonder Woman Fans Everywhere Introduction by Jacki Zehner with Report Written by Laura Moore April 15th, 2013 Wonder Woman - p. 2 April 15th, 2013 AN INTRODUCTION AND FRAMING “The destiny of the world is determined less by battles that are lost and won than by the stories it loves and believes in” – Harold Goddard. I believe in the story of Wonder Woman. I always have. Not the literal baby being made from clay story, but the metaphorical one. I believe in a story where a woman is the hero and not the victim. I believe in a story where a woman is strong and not weak. Where a woman can fall in love with a man, but she doesnʼt need a man. Where a woman can stand on her own two feet. And above all else, I believe in a story where a woman has superpowers that she uses to help others, and yes, I believe that a woman can help save the world. “Wonder Woman was created as a distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to ʻa world torn by the hatred of men.ʼ”1 While the story of Wonder Woman began back in 1941, I did not discover her until much later, and my introduction didnʼt come at the hands of comic books. Instead, when I was a little girl I used to watch the television show starring Lynda Carter, and the animated television series, Super Friends.
