Right… They closed it as a “cost-cutting measure” and “not because the studio unionized”. This is where the lawmakers are just letting everyone know that they are garbage to be walked all over. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that “cost-cutting” a studio that just unionized is because they unionized, because a union means they have to start paying their workers their fair share, which means “higher costs” to them, when it should’ve been like that from the start.
Anti-union industry is vast.
You have advisors that have preprepared media statements, threats, worker
conditioningpropaganda, etc.But ultimately it’s the govs issue not to enforce the law.
