Bingo. In a fight between unions and "the oppressed," unions will win.
Hollywood should accept my dare to just Drop Dead.
I would say that Hollywood is already operating under an inclusion rider-type quota system and have done for years.
These “diversity” inclusion clauses sounds like cha ching to labor law attorneys.
Exactly, you have sex with the producer, you get a role.
"Clause 24 (Inclusion Rider): A minimum of 45% of the Electricians to be Methodists; 25% of the Script Girls to be Oregonians; 50% of the Make-Up Specialists to be Heterosexual..."
Regards,
It should apply to sports teams as well. Oh, wait. That’s different!!
Who is Frances McDormand?
“”””you demand that the cast and/or crew be diverse according to some formula. Usually, that formula is based on the demographic makeup of the larger society. “”””””””””””
Good. So that means they will start hiring Trump supporting, God loving, gun totin’ white straight males, right?
Didn’t think so.
Let’s see the bunch still in Hollywood do that. They’re always talking about helping the downtrodden. Here would be their opportunity.
They’ll hire enough gay/black/female “art directors” to meet the rider’s requirements. It may be an additional few $100k to meet the demands of a $10 million diva. And everyone on set will be able to have an “art director” got get coffee and donuts whenever they demand.
Basically, they’ll replace interns with “art directors” and brag about how “woke” the production is. I’m sure McDormand will be absolutely thrilled and feel good about herself to see dozens of additional minorities on the set (and won’t even notice they are just delivering donuts).
The left is all about appearance, not results. If they want results, they’ll demand more training and mentoring for unqualified minorities - McDormand could even volunteer her time to help train staff to be better qualified. But they’d rather see jobs go to less qualified minorities (at someone else’s expense) than put out an effort for real change.
He would use one per day, then have the lot of them shipped to homes for boys so that the older ones could look well groomed for school, looking for jobs etc.
We don’t need no stinkin’ riders.
Wouldn’t it be great if the two top gotta have stars have an inclusion rider and an exclusion rider?
I can see acceding to Steve McQueen's demands because he was..Steve McQueen, one of the biggest stars of all time. I wouldn't give a rat's ass what Frances McDormand demands. There is no way she is a box office draw. She's won a couple of Oscars, but she is not a name that puts bottoms on seats in theaters.
Let’s apply it to Black Panther.
“I would say that Hollywood is already operating under an inclusion rider-type quota system and have done for years.

That’s not a rider, it’s a ride her!
“Exactly, you have sex with the producer, you get a role.”
It doesn’t sound like Harvey Weinstein was divying up the casting couch time fairly between female and male actors. Shouldn’t gay males be upset about that?
Leftist’s love Quotas. That’s why many of them Adopt Black Children from Africa.
American Kids of Color aren’t on the approved List.
