The sorry state of streaming residuals shows why SAG and the WGA are striking.

      You can’t take the company at their word on that. They’re in the middle of a labour action, of course they’re not going to go on about how much effect the strike is having on them, that’s counter to the goals of starving the other side out.

      And anyways, this is saving money in the sense that burning down one’s house will save money on rent.

      If people aren’t doing work you aren’t paying them wages. So yes, sure, some company probably saved 100m in wages, benefits, etc. This is what they call bottom line savings. What i’d like to hear is how this affects their top line e.g. revenue. Only the combination matters and odds are this will have impacts on the top line in the next 18-36 months.
