Hollywood faces larger work stoppage as actors threaten to strike alongside writers - PBS NewsHour

[Rhiannon12866]

The actors union SAG-AFTRA has called for a strike authorization vote. If the strike is approved, actors could join the more than 11,000 Writers Guild members already on the picket line putting more pressure on studios and networks. The writers' strike halted production of movies, scripted series and late-night shows. Geoff Bennett discussed what's at stake with Sal Gentile and Jeane Phan Wong. - Aired on 05/18/2023.

IATSE members refuse to cross any legitimate picket line, so do Teamsters. SAG/AFTRA members should honor those lines, too.

Having scripts stockpiled to weather the WGA strike won’t work. The same for the crew—they won’t work either. 😂
