It's worse than that. It is saying that an actor/actress, where boycotts which made them radioactive, should still be considered for, perhaps even given, roles by a company looking to make money off their marketability.
Throw in the taunts of censorship and McCarthyism when no one has been black listed and you see the hysterical reaction to a problem that is not there(ie blacklist a coordinated effort by employers to prevent employment). Now flip it and the left will boycott, call for laws against and work in the back cenes to punish those who do not agree with them. Look at how conservative actors and actresses are treated.
