David Zaslav has thin skin and should not be in a position of running a major media conglomerate. GQ should be ashamed of themselves and it'll make any freelancer think twice before pitching articles in the future.

took down Jason Bailey's not very flattering piece about WB/Discovery CEO . Who knows why*? But you can still read it!

* GQ's owner has an 8% stake in WB/Discovery.

When 3 of history's greatest film directors worry enough to call you to collectively ask "WTF are you doing over there?!!," , it's time to reevaluate your career choices.
Fer chrissakes, leave alone. In fact, don't. touch. anything.

’s departure marks the failure of his mandate — delivered from his corporate overlords, including CEO — to recalibrate the network’s political sensibility toward the center. To the extent that anyone ever understood what that meant for actual broadcasts, it’s now clear that it meant the screen in deference to the front-runner.

A disaster, in other words.

Treating CNN like another media property to demolish and rebuild seems ill-considered. Warner Bros. Discovery needs CNN’s cash flow. To be sure, it’s tough to revamp a cable network, and Zaslav has hard-earned knowledge from doing so in the past. But changing CNN is like repairing an airplane while it’s already in flight. Everyone can see what’s happening, and if executives aren’t careful, the whole thing might crash.

David Zaslav Likes to Gut Cable Networks. CNN Isn’t Easily Remodeled
Analysis: Warner Bros. Discovery's news giant is no fixer-upper, and probably shouldn't be treated as such
