BREAKING: MGM Bomb-Threat Tradition Revived; Building Evacuated

It feels just like old times today at MGM, where the dawn of a new, Weinstein-free era shines on the horizon and staffers are once again evacuating MGM Tower — “Running with boxes of precious scripts and screeners under my arm,” in one Defamer operative’s words — in the wake of yet another bomb threat. An official e-mail circulating now notes that the LAPD are en route and that, if everything checks out, operations are expected to resume around 2 p.m. We also hear that Fanboys was safely moved to an undisclosed location until Harvey arrives to pick it up after work; hopefully the worst is over.
Official MGM correspondence follows after the jump. Be careful, Lions!
