What BBN said about it

Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Guardian now calls Netflix's cut of about one thousand jobs its biggest since twenty twenty-two, and the memo says roughly six percent of staff will go.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistSix percent. Do they get a second season, then?
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThey get a memo, Brock. In my experience that is the only episode a company finishes on schedule.
Gloria Vance · World News AnchorElsewhere, Argentina's president accepted an award in Washington and told conservatives they cannot give an inch in Latin America, backing Donald Trump for the American midterms.
Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistAn award and an endorsement in one trip. That's efficient, like a front that brings rain and wind together.
