TV writer should be a part time Job.
Sounds like she kinda cut him off after he spoke the truth.
Hollywood is going to silence him, he broke a rule tryna be messy🙆🏽♂️🙆🏽♂️🙆🏽♂️
So if he wins, Hollywood execs suffer, if loses the writers suffer, and if neither wins, everyone else wins.
When the person on the top makes in an hour more than what the people actually doing the work make in a year that is disgusting
Tired of subsidizing CEO bonus checks
Disney makes about a 3rd of the net income they did in 2019..im sure if i look at the financials of legacy media it would look the same..these people are lucky to have a job
Who are these writer's Adam? Why are you striking when you have a net worth of over a million dollars? Who is starving when even the lower end writers still make an average of $60,000 a year?
Netflix is the new Walmart for benefits?
If the writers are making that little money then maybe it's a sign that they should be writers and she try something else.
Bob Iger is a dinosaur,that clown hasn’t worked a day in his life.Him and his company are nothing without the creative minds that make stories come to life.🖕🖕🖕🖕
Sounds like a proxy fight makes me even less interested
David Zaslav is a wildly incompetent buffoon, it's absolutely wild that he's getting paid that much money to do his job so poorly
"You may have ruined my career" everyone laughs "But no, seriously, we can't criticize our corporate CEO billionaire overlords and we use the media as a blunt object for his interests"
now this is some more news
writers reparations
Adam ruins the plans of network excutives to underpay their workers
Kudos to that reporter! Dropped a solid reference that actually backed up what Adam said, to a small degree
Capitalism
God, this guy is annoying
Out of context that last line from her is hilarious
That's America, rich people getting richer off the hard work of the common person. I'm not surprised, this country was built on slavery.
Americans produdly say their r for capatilism. Now they r fighting for communism ideology.
I’m glad people are finally getting more and more fed up it’s long overdue
Full support for Adam to ruin everything!!!
Corporate greed ! Stop overpaying the CEO's !!!!!
Pay those who writers who make these profits possible !!!
Otherwise you are going to lose your audience.
Adam Ruins Hollywood
Finally….. the points that matter .
this!
11,000+ writers is way too many. Thats the real issue. There isn’t that much content being written on a daily basis. No wonder you’re underpaid, you let too many people in the writer’s room.
