Max faces backlash and rebrands, while Peacock offers its own suggestion.

Warner Bros. Discovery has reversed changes made to director and writer credits in its rollout of Max after receiving backlash from the Directors Guild and the Writers Guild. The DGA called the company’s unilateral move “a grave insult,” while the WGA called the change “disrespectful and insulting.” The credits for movies on Max had listed directors and writers together as “creators.” The company apologized for the mistake and said it will correct the credits.
