Only 7% Of Americans Sympathize With Studios Over Striking Writers and Actors

LOS ANGELES, CA - MAY 04: People picket outside of Paramount Pictures studios during the Hollywood writers strike on May 4, 2023 in Los Angeles, 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)

Yesterday, the Los Angeles Times released the results of a survey gauging U.S. consumers’ opinions on the SAG-AFTRA strike. The survey sampled 1,000 respondents, and most of the results indicated a lack of comprehensive knowledge by consumers regarding the dual strikes by the WGA and SAG-AFTRA.

While 72 percent of those surveyed indicated awareness of the strike, only 60 percent were even somewhat aware of the issues involved with the strike.
