There seems to be a pattern with the shows and films that are getting the ax.
People have noticed a pattern with Warner Bros. Discovery’s recent cancellations. Many of the shows and films canceled highlighted communities that are hugely underrepresented in media.
To make matters worse, this pattern is something that 30 members of Congress warned the agency of in a letter that stated that Discovery’s acquisition of Warner Bros. could lead to a loss of diverse content that would serve their audience best.
As we reflect on this letter after WBD has shelved projects, swallowed HBO Max, and started laying off employees at HBO, we can say that WBD has done just what these Congressmembers were fearful of.
