The Writers Guild of America’s strike against major media companies has reached a significant milestone, marking 100 days on Wednesday.
This duration parallels a previous lengthy labor action from 15 years ago when screenwriters had demanded fair compensation for content distributed online. At that time, the online realm represented a small portion of media companies’ operations. However, the current strike’s focus has shifted to the ramifications of the rapid transition to streaming platforms.
The ongoing standoff shows no signs of resolution, and tensions escalated further last month when the actors’ union joined the writers on the picket lines.
