Netflix Cancelled Its Way Into Power. Now It HAS Warner Bros Too [View all]

"Hollywood is not overreacting. It is sounding the alarm because Netflix has a terrible pattern that stretches from creative abandonment to corporate carelessness. The company that just swallowed Warner cannot be trusted to protect legacy studios.

It cannot be trusted with workers.

It cannot be trusted with storytellers.

It cannot be trusted with the fans who made it powerful in the first place."
