Big Village\u2019s CARAVAN recently spoke to a nationwide sample of consumers and found that while nearly everyone is aware of the entertainment industry\u2019s writers\u2019 strike, there is not yet a clear winner in the PR battle.<\/span><\/h3>\nMany consumers still don\u2019t know enough about the strike to form an opinion, and of those that do there is a pretty even distribution for who they blame: 26% say studios are primarily responsible, 29% blame the writers\u2019 union or actors, and 16% blame the impact of technology. There is also notable differences across generations on the significance of the impact of the strike and what alternatives they\u2019ll pursue. Most of us (79%) believe that the concern the Hollywood writers have about AI potentially replacing their jobs in the future is at least somewhat legitimate.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n
Who do you believe is PRIMARILY responsible for the writers\u2019 strike?<\/h2>\n
There is a pretty even distribution for who consumers blame: 26% say studios are primarily responsible, 29% blame the writers\u2019 union or actors, and 16% blame the impact of technology. 29% of Americans aren\u2019t sure (37% for Baby Boomers).<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Are you supportive of the WRITERS\u2019 demands in the strike?<\/h2>\n
39% are also not sure if they support the writers\u2019 demands because they don\u2019t know enough about the strike. This is claimed much less by Gen Z (22%), and more by Baby Boomers at 52%. We also found 68% of Democrats are supportive, while 39% of Republicans are.<\/p>\n

Baby Boomers see this as minor impact on their entertainment consumption (73% say its either minor or no impact). Meanwhile, 62% of Gen Zs and 28% of Baby Boomers say it\u2019s having at least a moderate impact.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
If the writers\u2019 strike continues and there are no new shows to watch, how do you plan to spend your leisure time instead?<\/h2>\n
Gen Zs and Millennials are more likely to turn to YouTube, more likely to watch foreign TV, and Gen Zs are more likely to explore other entertainment such as gaming. Gen Z\u2019s and Millennials are less likely to watch re-runs compared to their Gen X and Baby Boomer counterparts.<\/p>\n
