Hollywood Writers Stirke
BURBANK, CA - MAY 03: People picket outside of Warner Bros. Studios on the second day of the Hollywood writers strike on May 3, 2023 in Burbank, California. Scripted TV series, late-night talk shows, film, and streaming productions are being interrupted by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike. In 2007 and 2008, a WGA strike shut down Hollywood productions for 100 days, costing the local economy between $2 billion and $3 billion.  (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)
