Streaming has bulldozed the traditional Hollywood writer’s system, allowing studios to get away with under-paying and under-employing writers… signing them to smaller contracts, for less time, no raises to account for inflation, no residual income, keeping writers at minimum deals for decades with no advancement… basically turning what could have been a sustainable career into a gig economy where writers are competing harder for less and less freelance scraps. All the while studios post record profits year over year. GO WRITERS!!
