    Blaming unions trying to get some job security and living wages, while executives get paid millions per year is not cool

    Literally at the bottom of the article are links to: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/roku-ceo-anthony-wood-2024-pay-1236205274/ and https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/business-news/amc-networks-ceo-pay-2024-kristin-dolan-1236169861/

      Who cares lol.

      The workers needed to get paid more so the corporation sought additional revenue streams. Hello advertisements.

      You thought the “job security and living wages” was going to come from nowhere? When to production costs of a good go up, producers will either seek additional revenue streams, or increase the price of that good to pass the extra cost down to the consumer.

      Everybody’s like “pay the actors” until their streaming bill goes up by $5 or an ad pops up on their TV screen lol

        You completely ignored the whole thing about executives getting paid millions per year.

          Yeah because it wasn’t in your comment at first.

          Executives were never going to sacrifice their pay raises. They usually don’t eat into their own margins to pay employees, especially when they’re in an industry that’s not exactly financially profitable.
