What a whirlwind. I started out confused that she still exists, then confused that she has a show, and then that she was being invited to host things. At least it ended on a note that I understood: “I’m gonna abide by the strike or whatever, but I’m like… so sick of this, you guys! Can we just… not?”
It sounds like she’s trying to pretend that she’s a news show when in reality she’s just an actress reading jokes about the news. She certainly is not more newsworthy than the daily show or Seth Meyers and they are off for the strike.
It sounds like she doesn’t want to follow the rules and is salty because people are holding her to some kind of standard.
It means that LLM are good enough now to write show scripts. Only the best writers will get paid in the future. Computers are automating many people out of their roles. They will need to learn to adapt to the job market changes. I am not opposed to a UBI and VAT. Unions are disruptive though and cause people who want to work to not be able to. They have their own internal politics and corruption and essentially force people to pay an overhead cost to enter an industry via dues. If you want unions to exist, then they should be bound by a set of rules as well. Negotiations can’t stall for months. Shows are just going to start to be written by their producers and really have the writers breaking the picket line, but remaining incognito ghost writers.

It sounds like she is playing by all the rules. The writers are just being salty.

Still qualifies you as a news show. The writers need to accept that they are worth less now.
I really hope you work in a job that isn’t unionized and you get pole fucked by a corporation.
“Writers need to accept that they are worth less now” is a completely shit ass statement. Why are writers worth less now?
