Many people may not realize the Hollywood writers’ strike didn’t officially end until WGA members voted to ratify the new deal. That 99% of membership voted for the deal tells you how much the union achieved.
It’s officially over: The WGA has ratified the three-year contract deal that ended the second-longest #WritersStrike in the union’s history. Ninety-nine percent of union members voted to support the contract: thr.cm/F2TqMG4

So long @HerschelWalker. A Senate campaign of many words and not much sense.

Here's what's going on at Twitter right now: It's a nightmare.
Employees are sounding the alarm about how it could make getting reliable information on this site during Tuesday's elections impossible.

35 years ago last night, my mother, brother and I landed at JFK on a long Lufthansa flight. My father had gone ahead of us; our mom didn't know if we had utensils at our new home, so she asked our flight attendant if we could keep the cutlery. She quietly said yes.

The most interesting thing I’ve seen at Cannes is Snapchat’s glimpse into an alternate reality where I can afford Balenciaga
The Ad Age team is out and about exploring #CannesLions2022 🏖
What's the most interesting thing you've seen at Cannes so far?

Interesting big picture analysis of the #DeppVsHeard trial from @simondumenco @adage. It includes references to @LawCrimeNetwork. . . adage.com/article/media/depp…

Now that the Depp-Heard show is lurching to a close, with the trial in its jury-deliberation phase, it’s hard to imagine what the celebrity-industrial complex, and the media industry in general, will find to replace it. ow.ly/ZfKc50JlTVv

I’ve always respected @Trevornoah so much but this closing speech from the White House correspondents’ dinner is particularly spectacular.
