This week in ThoseinMedia, our members share the determiners of success, Google strives to convince us that it’s not a monopoly while publishers sue Open AI and Microsoft over theft of work, how gaming ecosystems are an excellent way to expose brands to Gens Z and A, the on-going saga of the potential Paramount sale, the home page is having a moment and more. The featured images are from Gig Harbor, WA, so named because it sheltered Captain Charles Wilkes during a heavy storm in 1840 when he was exploring this part of the Salish coast.

Wishing you all a great weekend and a productive week ahead.
