“Can somebody explain to me what I’m not understanding?” Silverman asked in an Instagram video posted Thursday night. “... Because I feel f*cking pissed off, and I know I just must not be understanding something.”
reports that SAG-AFTRA executive director Duncan Crabtree-Ireland said the union’s interim agreements with independent productions undermine the major studios’ assertion that its demands are “unrealistic.”
“Like, what the fuck?” Silverman said. “It’s scabbing. You’ve made that so clear that it’s scabbing. Now all of a sudden, movie stars can make movies if they’re indie movies, where they promise that they’ll only sell it if X, Y, and Z? That’s called the end of the strike, motherfucker!”Silverman also expressed her concern that these interim deals would slow down the bargaining process.
The logic that Crabtree-Ireland reportedly expressed about the interim agreements echoes a tactic the WGA used during its last strike, which lasted for 100 days from 2007 to 2008.Negotiation and Conflict Management Research According to authors Linda Putnam and Ryan Fuller, the WGA aimed to prove that, contrary to what major studios claimed, its objectives were “fair and reasonable.” The authors added that the agreements put pressure on the studios “to resume talks, even though management publicly stated that these deals were meaningless.”
