I’m having a hard time believing that industry executives are negotiating in even remotely good faith. If that were true, it’s not likely that a second major union would have joined the strike.
Such ridiculous pandering; get ready for the PR tactics that will make union demands look unreasonable and paint the workers as lazy and greedy.
Their last offer apparently I cluded a bit where extras could be paid for one day. Where they would be scanned and a digital likeness could then be used in any project for perpetuity without additional pay...
So yeah, fair to say they're not negotiating in good faith.
That was a threat to lead actors.
It’s important to know what side the source is on for anything but right now for the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strike do know that major publications Variety, Deadline, and the Hollywood Reporter are all owned by a member of the AMPTP.
AMPTP: Alliance of Motion Picture amd Television Producers
Had to look it up cuz I didn't know : P
They aren't negotiating in good faith. They won't talk again until October, and are waiting them out hoping they'll lose thier homes.
