Hollywood Unions Target YouTube Creators

This video from Clownfish TV takes a critical look at Hollywood unions—specifically the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and SAG-AFTRA—and their push to unionize online creators on platforms like YouTube and podcasts. The hosts argue that Hollywood’s traditional model is collapsing, with fewer TV writing jobs and increased reliance on AI and outsourcing, and that unions are now targeting the creator economy as a new revenue stream. They call out what they see as overreach, including expelling members for alleged strike violations and pushing for mandatory union membership in online content creation. Ultimately, the discussion frames these moves as a threat to creator independence and an attempt to impose old industry rules on a new, largely self-sustaining digital space.
