NewsGuild demands New York Times show 'greater transparency and accountability' after critic reassignments
The NewsGuild of New York is urging The New York Times to demonstrate "greater transparency and accountability" after staffers were forced to plead with management for an explanation regarding the sudden reassignment of four prominent critics. The ordeal began last month when chief theater critic Jesse Green, chief pop music critic Jon Pareles, TV critic Margaret Lyons and music critic Zach Woolfe were reassigned to other departments. That prompted unionized culture staffers to pen a memo to Times executive editor Joe Kahn, assistant managing editor Sam Sifton and culture editor Sia Michel saying they were "shocked and deeply concerned" over the decision and demanded a meeting to understand its implications. Times leadership responded by meeting with some of the staffers last week, but the Guild wants Kahn and other Times leaders to be clearer going forward. "As a unionized newsroom, our Times Guild members have a right to speak up for the work they produce. This is just one of the essential protections our contract provides to Guild members. We sincerely hope Times management demonstrates greater transparency and accountability to our members on the culture desk going forward, as well as at the bargaining table when we return for contract talks later this year. We are closely monitoring as this situation unfolds," NewsGuild of New York President Susan DeCarava told Fox News Digital. The meeting was first described as "tense" by Semafor, and a Times insider agreed with that description. "Kahn repeatedly emphasized that the critics were not removed due to performance issues, but said the paper wanted to bring 'fresh perspectives' to the critics' roles," Semafor reported. The New York Times declined comment when reached by Fox News Digital. Last month, Michel announced the changes in an email to Times staffers. "We are in the midst of an extraordinary moment in American culture. New generations of artists and audiences are bypassing traditional institutions, smartphones have Balkanized fandoms even as they have made culture more widely accessible than ever, and arts institutions are facing challenges and looking for new opportunities," Michel wrote in a memo obtained by Fox News Digital. "Our readers are hungry for trusted guides to help them make sense of this complicated landscape, not only through traditional reviews but also with essays, new story forms, videos and experimentation with other platforms," the culture editor added. "Our mission is to be those guides. As we do so, I am making some changes in assignments in the department." Michel called the four reassigned critics the "best in class," and said the Times would be "sharing news of their new roles soon." "I know that these are big changes. While it has long been the practice in the newsroom to shift the roles of reporters, editors and bureau chiefs to bring different ideas and experience to important beats and coverage areas, we've done this far less with our roster of critics. But it is important to bring different perspectives to core disciplines as we help our coverage expand beyond the traditional review," Michel wrote.

Rod Stewart's AI-Generated Ozzy Osbourne Controversy, Explained
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - FEBRUARY 26: Singer Rod Stewart performs on stage at the Acer Arena on February 26, 2008 in Sydney, Australia. (Photo by Don Arnold/WireImage) WireImage Singer Rod Stewart sparked backlash after his concert featured an AI-generated tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne, which struck many as distasteful. Osbourne passed away last month at the age of 76—his death inspired an outpouring of love and affection from his fans and peers, but Stewart's AI-generated tribute invoked unease. Rod Stewart has been paying tribute to Osbourne ever since he passed away, with Stewart regularly dedicating his song 'Forever Young' to the Black Sabbath star during his 'One Last Time' tour. Stewart's concert on August 1 featured a new addition to the 'Forever Young' tribute—a bizarre, AI-generated video of Osbourne taking selfies with deceased celebrities, standing before a cloudy background meant to represent Heaven. Celebrities featured in the AI-generated video include Prince, Michael Jackson, Tina Turner, XXXTentacion, Tupac Shakur, Freddie Mercury, Bob Marley, Kurt Cobain, and Amy Winehouse. The fact that many of these late stars suffered tragic, untimely deaths adds to the ghoulishness of the display—all are shown grinning inanely at the camera, animated by the digital necromancy of generative AI. Concertgoers quickly shared their reaction on social media, along with online commentators who did not attend the show. Relatives of XXXTentacion and Tupac Shakur told TMZ that they had no problems with the AI-generated tribute, but many fans felt otherwise. One commentator described the tribute as a 'sign of stupidity'—many reckoned it was 'creepy and tasteless.' Another expressed shock at the contents of the video, and concluded, 'We truly are in the end times.' The condemnation echoed the words of the legendary Studio Ghibli director Hayao Miyazaki, whose negative reaction to a generative AI presentation became something of a rallying cry for anti-AI artists. Musing on what he had just witnessed, a dispirited Miyazaki said, 'I feel like we are nearing the end times. We humans are losing faith in ourselves.' The Backlash Against Generative AI Continues Generative AI has been controversial since release—it's an energy-intensive invention built on the output of artists without their consent, threatening the livelihood of workers and polluting the internet with machine-made content. Recent concerns about AI involve the altering of real video and imagery, such as the reshaping of The Wizard of Oz to fit the Las Vegas Sphere. Lately, AI enthusiasts have been using the technology for a more unsettling purpose, posting pictures of their deceased relatives that they have 'animated' using AI, old photographs imbued with the appearance of life. Many commentators react to these re-animated clips with visceral disgust and horror, often citing works of fiction that warn against meddling with memories, or attempting to reanimate the dead. The AI-generated Ozzy Osbourne tribute feels like a step toward the normalization of such practices, trivializing the memory of the deceased with images and videos that do not feature their true self, but a machine-made echo of their likeness. It wasn't long ago that generative AI crossed a technological boundary, capable of creating convincing video of anyone, doing anything—now, it's forcing the dead to smile for the camera.
