IN THE NEWS
Good news/bad news for Elon Musk. The billionaire will be allowed to amend his countersuit against Twitter, as he maneuvers to get out of his $44 billion deal to buy the social networking company. Musk’s lawyers had asked a Delaware Chancery Court judge to include a whistleblower complaint from Twitter’s former head of security, Peiter Zatko, that accuses Twitter of lax cybersecurity and reacting inadequately to spam accounts. But Musk’s request for a trial extension was denied. The longer the delay until trial, “the greater the risk of irreparable harm to Twitter,” said the judge. “Indeed, Twitter has represented that the anticipated risk of harm has materialized over the course of this litigation.” The start of the trial is set for October 17.
What to expect from former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who starts work at MSNBC next week? “My business is not rage,” said Psaki at Vox Media’s Code Conference. “What I hope to do is bring that passion for explaining things, debunking things, calling out BS when you see it to my next job.” At MSNBC Psaki will cover the election and other issues, and host a streaming series in 2023.
In the wake of a $42 million haul from Netflix, the WGA has settled arbitration against Amazon for more than $4 million in underpaid residuals and interest owed to screenwriters for films produced or acquired by Amazon. “Like Netflix, Amazon had been systematically undervaluing imputed license fees on theatrical films where it was both the producer and the distributor,” WGA West leaders told members. “Amazon even underpaid residuals on films it acquired from independent producers, imputing a low license fee for these films rather than paying the writer a residual of 1.2% of the actual license fee paid to the producer, as required by the MBA (Minimum Basic Agreement).”
Eighty percent of consumers agree that misinformation is a serious problem in digital media, according to Integral Ad Science report, “Advertising in the Age of Misinformation,” which should be of concern to advertisers since 73% of consumers say that they feel unfavorably toward brands that have been associated with misinformation. Other findings include:
· Among consumers who said that social media is the content type they consume the most, 71% said they regularly encountering misleading digital content.
· 91% of consumers are confident in their ability to detect misinformation.
· 65% of consumers say that they are likely or very likely to stop buying from a brand that advertises next to misinformation.
“Our research demonstrates that there’s a gap between consumers’ unfavorable views of content alongside misinformation and how prepared marketers are to address it,” said Yannis Dosios, Global Chief Commercial Officer at IAS. “Context-based strategies provide an incredible opportunity for marketers to avoid misinformation and reach their target audience for maximum ROI with minimal impact on reach.”
From January 1-July 31, alcohol TV ad impressions were down 17% year-over- year, according iSpot report, “Which Alcohol Spots Are Making a Splash in 2022?”. Mexican brands now account for nearly 44% of beer TV ad impressions (up from 39% during the same time frame in 2021), while Modelo was the most-seen alcohol brand on TV. Smirnoff was the most-seen wine & spirits brand on TV, after increasing ad impressions by nearly 4x YoY. And cheers to ESPN, which accounts for nearly 1 in 10 TV ad impressions for alcohol – including beer, wine & spirits.
Speaking of, “We like the hand we have,” responded Disney CFO Christine McCarthy to a question at a media conference about activist investor Daniel Loeb’s call for the company to spin off ESPN. “ESPN is a great business and it is fully integrated into how we think about delivering entertainment [and] compelling content to customers.”

PRODUCTION & DEVELOPMENT
Fox unveiled “the ultimate celebrity social experiment” on Wednesday, during Fox Entertainment Fall Press Day. “Special Forces: The Ultimate Test” (wt) will have celebrities endure grueling challenges from the playbook of the actual Special Forces selection process. Participants include Danny Amendola, Mel B, Hannah Brown, Tyler Florence, Kate Gosselin, Dwight Howard, Montell Jordan, Gus Kenworthy, Nastia Liukin, Carli Lloyd, Beverley Mitchell, Kenya Moore, Mike Piazza, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Anthony Scaramucci and Jamie Lynn Spears. “In many ways, it is more about mental strength than physical strength,” said Rob Wade, President, Alternative Entertainment & Specials. “It’s an eye-opening glimpse into the most intense training in the world and gives a taste of the grit and bravery our armed forces show on a daily basis, which was a life-changing experience for these celebrities.” The series produced by Minno Films is set to debut in January 2023.
That wasn’t Fox’s only big news. A three-night event, “LEGO Masters: Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular,” hosted by Will Arnett, will feature guest appearances by Leslie Jordan, Robin Thicke, Cheryl Hines and Finesse Mitchell starting Monday, December 19 at 8p.

Producer and distributor Endeavor Content (“Severance”) has rebranded as Fifth Season.
