Pity the movie studio chief.

Imagine for a moment that you are Ann Sarnoff, the head of Warner Bros., the venerable Hollywood studio founded in 1923 by Harry, Albert, Sam and Jack Warner. Sarnoff took the job running the studio not long after it was acquired by AT&T, a phone company with little interest in the norms and traditions that have governed Hollywood for decades.
