Summary
On what felt like the first day of sunshine they have seen in London this year, the reporter spoke with David Shelley, the U.K.-U.S. CEO of Hachette, about how the global publishing giant is wresting control over its authors’ work from the jaws of Big Tech. Big Tech is certainly getting the most out of its lawyers lately.
