The entertainment industry has undergone a period of cutbacks since its early enthusiastic embrace of video streaming, when established media companies lost billions as they launched competitors to Netflix.

They started to rein in spending when Netflix posted its first loss of subscribers in a decade in early 2022, and Wall Street began prioritising profitability over subscriber growth.

A second, larger round of job cuts will happen in April, "with several thousand more staff reductions", he said, while the final round will start before the beginning of the northern hemisphere summer.California-based global entertainment conglomerate announced in February that it would eliminate 7,000 jobs as part of an effort to save $US5.5 billion in costs and make its money-losing streaming business, Disney+, profitable.

go woke go broke

Too late. The company let itself get captured by ideologues who were more interested in pushing their agenda instead of giving their audience what it wanted.

😂 Go woke. Go broke. 🌈

They managed to destroy Star Wars... That's how good they are.

This is becoming common now, unfortunately!
