Warner Bros first went broke in the 1950s. Sold off all their movies. Jack Warner managed a leveraged buy out that kept the company in his hands for a while, but by 1967 that was all over. They sold to the Kinney National Company.
Since then Warner Brothers is just a brand companies trade around.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Wow, I had no idea.
But I think a lot of people have no idea how badly AIDs was stigmatized at the time. I've been (re)reading the amazing _Spectre_ series by John Ostrander, and one of his leads has HIV. Totally courageous. 1992. The same year Isaac died.
