Mr. Zuckerberg was amenable. He signaled to Mr. Miller and his colleagues, including other senior Trump advisers, that he would do nothing to obstruct the Trump agenda, according to three people with knowledge of the meeting, who asked for anonymity to discuss a private conversation. Mr. Zuckerberg said he would instead focus solely on building tech products.

He said new guidelines and a series of layoffs amounted to a reset and that more changes were coming.

Thank God Vanity Fair is keeping it REAL!

Society of Authors calls for celebrity memoir ghostwriters to be credited Many celebrities’ books are actually written by others, the writers’ union says, and it’s time they were acknowledged

This is one of our current campaigns at Society of Authors, thanks to Chair of the Children’s Writers and Illustrators Group @abielongstaff.bsky.social

In short: Credit ghosts. Pay ghosts. My experience with Sir Chris was only positive. Shame not all are.
