Dont confuse "entertainment" and "media".

Especially "NEW" media.

This is all in the last few years.

Netflix just expanded in LA. The hottest/most profitable new producer, Jason Blum (Blumhouse) is in KoreaTown.

What has left for Atlanta or NYC? Or anything?

Tax credits run out. Shooting in other places doesnt mean anything, especially if you're talking long run.
What about the tonight show?

I meant the new media will make it easier for all the talent in LA to shoot their movies, TV shows, music videos at a lower cost.

That's why LA will benefit.

Without entertainment, LA is nothing. It isn't going anywhere and never will.

Other...Canada, mainly Toronto and Vancouver still rule. This trend has been going on for atleast two and a half decades, and shows no signs of letting up.
