There is already a deep recession in the creative industry in LA, film jobs are down by a third since 2022. They’re not negotiating from a position of strength

I'm aware. There's a lot of FUD around this industry and a large corporation leaving wouldn't help.

At the same time, this promise to "support labor" falls flat when they have been actively combatting with it for recent years. Their words ring hollow.

And if we're being realistic: this is mostly Newsom trying to cover his tracks and look "strong" for 2028.
