    I don’t like this harsh writing advice thing. Sometimes this shit is easy, and sometimes it’s incredibly hard. You don’t need to be a jerk about it.

    Heartbreaking, infuriating, and for so many of us, familiar—especially the volatile, screaming boss protected by the company, the frustration, the despair. Read this account of what it was really like to work with one of the most powerful men in media.
