I am watching this to see how they unveil their streaming service and what they say about the four billion shows they're making.
Tim Cook is talking about Apple News right now, not the streamer yet, but here's the bonkers list of the shows (so far). appleinsider.com/articles/18/07…
.@rtraister is one of the main voices in the video announcing Apple News+, its new magazine service, which features 300 magazines (and counting, I imagine). #AppleEvent
Tech reporters, please tell me if I'm wrong, but I assume that Apple executives talking about privacy so much (particularly that ads won't follow you around) is a fuck-you to Facebook. #AppleEvent
Saying the new Apple TV app picks only "the good stuff" and illustrating it with #TheMeg is a CHOICE. #AppleEvent 
The new Apple TV service will be called #AppleTV+, which is unhashtag-able. (In the future, will everything just be "+"?) #AppleEvent
Sorry to be a naysayer, but this star-studded promotional video about Why TV and Movies Are Good is exactly the kind of thing the Oscars did NOT do this year — which was a great choice! Apple, pop culture existed before you! #AppleEvent
Did we know Steven Spielberg was shilling for Apple during the kerfuffle with Netflix? Seems relevant! #AppleEvent
I'm so negative today, I realize — but the new Big Bird does not sound like Big Bird! (Caroll Spinney retired.) #AppleEvent
Apple TV+ will launch in the fall on Apple devices and smart TVs. No mention of pricing, or whether shows will be to binge, or what shows will come first. #AppleEvent
#Oprah is moving her book club to Apple TV+ (conversations with the authors). #AppleEvent
As I remain skeptical, I'm also thinking about how I thought the iPad would flop because it's name was so ill-chosen. So know that! But things like this seem important. #AppleEvent
ITS not "IT'S." The shame!
Do the people in charge know how it's going to work? (Evergreen tweet!) )
