It feels like the bigger issue isn’t that there’s the concern it won’t pass, it probably will because it’s very difficult for something to fail to pass in SAG given the size, the concern is union members losing faith in leadership. That election in 2025 ahead of negotiations in 2026, especially as knowledge of what generative AI can really be grows, might get ugly.
It’s interesting to me, Rick, how few articles have been written about the win’s of the SAG-AFTRA deal (compared to the fawning coverage of WGA’s historic achievement). I was surprised SAG-AFTRA concluded everything over a weekend to ensure a “weekend news dump”. Something does seem odd about this contract and the lack of media support, enthusiasm and cheerleading. What am I missing?
