Not really, all of the supporting crew is getting shafted this way. They never made actor (or writer) salaries and are pretty much unemployed at the moment because most of them work on a gig basis... I get that the writers and actors have the right to strike but it sucks for more people than just the studios.

Sounds like they should join the strike then. Unless your solution is for everyone to get screwed equally.

Iatse got little more than thoughts and prayers from writers and actors during their almost strike a couple years ago.

Sounds like they should join the strike then. Not attending the negotiations means your interests are unrepresented at the table.

Again, are you advocating that these other workers join the fight or that everyone should just step back and let themselves get exploited?

So you're saying they are underpaid as well.
