CBS News is shuttering its Tokyo bureau , impacting three employees, following earlier cost-cutting in the division.

Foreign correspondent Liz Palmer , who has been based in Tokyo, will move elsewhere. The network will continue to have a presence in Asia, the network said Wednesday.

A network spokesperson said, “CBS News will continue to have a team in Asia, including an on-air correspondent. We also have a partnership with the BBC which provides us with additional resources in the region.”

The New York Post first reported on the bureau closure.

It is not yet clear where the on air-correspondent will be based. That could be in Beijing, where the network also has a bureau, according to a source.

In February, CBS News laid off about 20 employees as part of companywide cuts at Paramount Global. The layoffs impacted about 3% of the Paramount Global workforce.

IATSE Sees Fears and Promise of Artificial Intelligence: ‘We Want the Spoils’

By Gene Maddaus

When the Writers Guild of America went on strike last May, union leaders argued that artificial intelligence posed an existential threat to writers, painting a picture of a dystopian future in which TV shows might be crafted by one writer and a machine.

Ten months later, the tone in Hollywood labor circles has shifted significantly. At a March 3 rally in Los Angeles, Matthew Loeb, international president of IATSE , argued that AI has the potential to make union members’ jobs easier.

“We want some of the spoils of artificial intelligence,” Loeb said.

IATSE negotiations are always a complex matter because the union bargains on behalf of a broad range of disciplines — boom operators, grips, sound mixers, camera operators, costume designers, makeup artists, set decorators and so on. Some may not have much to fear from AI. But others are more vulnerable.

“We are focusing on AI as a tool,” says Jillian Arnold, who chairs IATSE’s subcommittee on AI for the negotiations. “It can incite some fears. We look at it more as a challenge and as a tool within our workplace.”

IATSE Local 700, the Motion Picture Editors Guild , could be one of the first locals to be impacted by AI. The guild’s Emerging Technology Committee has concluded that some jobs could well become obsolete.

“The impacts will be uneven,” says Harry B. Miller III, who co-chairs the committee. “Some things will be great. Some things will be negative.”

Even A-list editors have deep concerns about what AI might mean for the future of their profession.

“Pretty much everybody that I know — from editors to assistants, older people, younger people — are worried about what’s around the corner,” says an Oscar-winning film editor from Local 700.

“We don’t see this sort of technology, in its current state or in the future, being used to edit broadcast-able stories,” he says, adding there are important tasks the models cannot do. “All of these products are being marketed as wonder products that do everything, but it’s not the case.”

Pink and Miller emphasize that models they’ve seen also cannot handle continuity between shots, scenes and sequences or match cuts — simple tasks for human editors.

Technological changes could also fall harder on assistant editors than on editors. Depending on how it is deployed, AI could eliminate some of those assistant roles or change them significantly.

The Editors Guild also represents story analysts, whose job involves summarizing scripts and giving recommendations about whether to pursue them. In theory, that sounds like an assignment AI could handle. But in practice, Pink says, it’s not so easy.

“It can do plot summary,” he says. “It’s not telling you what the story is about. It’s telling you what the plot is about. It’s the story that connects with the audience.”

Pink says there’s a chance AI tools may create more jobs for assistant editors, not fewer. But it’s too soon to tell, which makes for difficult negotiations.

“AI will eliminate jobs, and it will create jobs,” says a prominent member of Local 700. “I’m not happy about this, and yet I am comfortable with its inevitability.”

Column: How Jack Smith just called out Judge Aileen Cannon in the Trump classified records case

• Show more sharing options
• Copy Link URL Copied!

Jack Smith has had enough.

Late Monday, the special counsel responded to U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon’s bizarre recent order in the classified records case against Donald Trump, which asked the parties to propose jury instructions based on flagrantly wrong legal premises. Smith’s answer, in effect, was “I’m not playing.”

Rather than take on Cannon’s cockamamie assignment, Smith laid out accurate jury instructions based on the actual charges and law.

Litman: Aileen Cannon’s handling of Trump’s classified records case just went from bad to horrible

The federal judge appointed by the former president keeps finding ways to delay Jack Smith’s case while threatening to dismiss it later.

March 20, 2024

Cannon had ordered the parties to “engage with” the Trump team’s recurrent misinterpretation of the Presidential Records Act, which has no legal bearing on the case. Her order also depended on an account of the facts — namely, that Trump may have magically converted all the classified government records at issue into his personal property as he left the White House — that has always been beyond incredible.

In effect, Cannon was ordering the Justice Department to assume that the world is flat and then map a route from Atlantis to Arcadia.

But the order wasn’t just daffy; it was pernicious.

As I explained when the judge entered the order , her “Alice in Wonderland” antics seemed designed to avoid issuing a ruling that prosecutors could appeal while also setting the stage for her to adopt Trump’s ridiculous claims after a jury has been impaneled.

Litman: Five ways Judge Aileen Cannon could protect Trump from the classified documents prosecution

The Florida jurist could impede the Department of Justice’s effort to hold the former president accountable for his handling of classified records in a few ways.

June 12, 2023

That could be a fatal blow to Smith’s case. Once a jury is selected, even a ridiculous order can bring a prosecution to a hard stop because the Constitution’s double jeopardy clause precludes retrial. It would be the judicial equivalent of a perfect crime.

Along with much of the country, the special counsel has no doubt watched in frustration as Cannon has repeatedly indulged silly arguments from Team Trump while eating up weeks and months that prosecutors — and voters — don’t have. She has taken a cut-and-dried case based on overwhelming evidence and made it a long shot to be tried this year, when it matters most.

Her conduct has raised the question of when and how Smith could ask the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to remove her from the case. That would be a heavy lift, and yet Cannon’s earlier bungling of a search warrant in the case was so extreme that another grievous error could justify such an unusual remedy.

But Cannon has seemed to play a kind of cat-and-mouse game with the prosecution, favoring Trump with delays while avoiding definitive rulings that Smith’s team could readily appeal.

The special counsel’s latest filing suggests the end of the game may be near. The government’s 24-page answer states flatly that the judge’s “legal premise is wrong, and a jury instruction … that reflects that premise would distort the trial.” Under the usual rules of discourse between judge and litigants (and especially federal prosecutors), that’s pretty cheeky.

But it was just the beginning of Smith’s pushback. The special counsel proceeded to instruct the judge — again contrary to normal etiquette — that it is “vitally important” that the court make a decision about Trump’s Presidential Records Act arguments. In other words, Cannon’s precious thought experiment was not only wrongheaded; it was a dereliction of the court’s basic responsibility to rule on the parties’ motions.

The Justice Department is turning the tables on Cannon by telling her to just decide the matter already. Smith’s team also put the need for a speedy trial in particularly clear terms: “Whatever the court decides, it must resolve these crucial threshold legal questions promptly. Failure to do so would improperly jeopardize the Government’s right to a fair trial.”

The prosecution further called out Cannon’s threat to issue a consequential ruling after a jury is impaneled, writing, “The Government must have the opportunity to consider appellate review well before jeopardy attaches.”

The Smith team then made its most important and aggressive move by noting that when judges have issued clearly erroneous jury instructions that doom prosecutions, “courts have permitted the government to obtain writs of mandamus.”

Even buried in a parenthetical as it is, the word “mandamus” jumps off the page as a threat to seek an extraordinary intervention by the appellate court. Smith has laid down the gauntlet, telling Cannon in no uncertain terms that if she doesn’t move to resolve Trump’s frivolous arguments well ahead of trial, he will bring a writ of mandamus to the 11th Circuit along with a motion to recuse her from the case. Providing this road map of his intentions puts Smith on firm footing to challenge the judge if she continues to dither.

For that reason, this brief is the special counsel’s most important in the case since the indictment. Under the circumstances, it’s the strongest possible move to speed the prosecution to a trial before the election. Either Cannon will move the case along, or the department will try to remove her from it.
