A letter to #DavidZaslav @WBD

Dear Mr. Zaslav,

I just read an article @THR about supposed ‘funeral screenings’ of #Batgirl and the possibility afterwards that the film footage would be destroyed.. if this is the case, as one of many who poured our hearts into the making of this
movie, I ask that this measure be reconsidered.

As much as I’ve tried my best to be strong these past few weeks, I’d find myself crying, for lack of a better term, from grief, and tonight was one of those nights. As much as Batgirl has been labeled a woke film, it simply came
together that way because of writing that reflects the world we live in. For me, more than anything, it is a father-daughter story which hits close to home as my Dad passed a year ago, shortly before I booked this project, and I was hoping it would resonate with other children

Stealing isn’t nice, @nypost @AlexSteigrad.

Here’s my 4/10 @Mediaite article on #WarnerBrosDiscovery CEO #DavidZaslav including a little scoop about his meeting w/ @CNN DC bureau.

Does it sound familiar? It should. You cut & pasted a big chunk of it. /1 mediaite.com/news/scoop-dis…
Here’s your 4/11 article. As I wrote in an email to you over 4 hours ago, I appreciate the link & credit for my reporting, but I do NOT appreciate the multiple sections that are taken verbatim from my article without proper designation as quotes. /2 nypost.com/2022/04/11/war…
Specifically, the entire middle section appears to have been cut-and-pasted from my writing, with only minimal changes & certainly well below any reasonable threshold to avoid constituting plagiarism.

Here are some screenshots, your article first, then mine./3 ImageImageImage
