From a book reviewed by Johanna Draper Carlson today:
"It’s not about the writers any more. The medium is the message now…. Forget about the writers and control the product. You said these stories were like bombs — well, if the copyright’s yours, they can just as easily be pablum…. Keep it all nice and safe. If the writer complains, kick him out and get some other shmuck to take over."
I think I may pick up a copy of this book. Just because.
