88% Make LESS THAN 26,000 A Year?! What The Actors Strike Is REALLY About | The Left Wing 12.3
A union representing about 160,000 Hollywood actors is going on strike after talks with major studios and streaming services have failed.
It is the first time its members have stopped work on movie and television productions since 1980, after a final day of negotiations on Wednesday did not produce an agreement.
Fran Drescher, president of SAG-AFTRA, the union, said in a statement the studio management’s offers were “insulting and disrespectful.”
