Why are writers on strike in Hollywood? What will be its impact? | Oneindia News

Currently on strike is the union that represents 11,500 writers for films, television shows, and other kinds of entertainment.

It's the first writers' strike in 15 years and the first major Hollywood strike overall.

The Writers Guild of America, also known as the WGA, was compelled to strike.

As usual, economics is the cause.

The major Hollywood studios have switched from a broadcast to a streaming economic model.

Previously, we watched our favorite TV shows via a satellite dish; today, we do so online.

However, it doesn't actually alter the work.

As the union demands a higher wage level, prohibitions against mini-rooms and the use of artificial intelligence, and viewership transparency from streamers, writers have been picketing in various parts of Los Angeles and New York City.

U.S. Braces for July 4 Terror Attack: FBI & DHS on HIGH ALERT as Iran-Backed Revenge Threat Looms [Video]

U.S. Braces for July 4 Terror Attack: FBI & DHS on HIGH ALERT as Iran-Backed Revenge Threat Looms

Ahead of the United States' Independence Day celebrations, federal agencies have issued a serious warning about potential terrorist attacks, specifically from lone wolf actors. This elevated threat level is a direct consequence of escalating tensions in the Middle East, where the U.S. has become more involved in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict. The situation intensified after U.S. B-2 Spirit bombers conducted a major operation on June 22, dropping heavy bunker buster bombs on three of Iran's nuclear facilities in a strategic move to aid Israel. In response to the potential for retaliatory attacks, security has been visibly bolstered across the country. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has identified lone wolves as the "greatest threat" to July 4th events, announcing an increased presence of State Police and the deployment of National Guard units at major transportation hubs, bridges, and tunnels throughout New York City. Authorities are also closely monitoring social media for any signs of cyber threats or domestic terror plots. The threat is not limited to New York. An FBI bulletin has specifically warned that San Francisco's famous fireworks show could be a target for a mass casualty attack. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has officially raised the national threat level to "Heightened" and stated it will remain in effect until September 22, citing the direct link to the escalating conflict between Iran and the U.S. While no specific or credible plots have been identified, federal and state agencies remain on high alert to counter any security situation that may arise during the holiday. #USTerrorAlert #July4th #USIranConflict #BreakingNews #WorldNews #OneindiaNews #KathyHochul #LoneWolf #MiddleEast #DHS ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

Who Is Rama Duwaji: The Syrian-American Artist Behind Zohran Mamdani’s Rise | NYC’s Next First Lady? [Video]

Who Is Rama Duwaji: The Syrian-American Artist Behind Zohran Mamdani’s Rise | NYC’s Next First Lady?

Rama Duwaji—artist, activist, and wife of NYC Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani—has stepped into the spotlight after months of silence. The 27-year-old Syrian-American illustrator, known for her pro-Palestinian work, had avoided campaign publicity, sparking controversy and speculation. Critics claimed her art and political stance made her a liability. But on June 24, as Mamdani celebrated his win, she stood beside him—silent, composed, present. Born in Texas, raised partly in Dubai, Duwaji's work explores Gaza, race, identity, and dissent. Her pieces have supported Palestinian students and questioned U.S. policies. She and Mamdani met on a dating app, married in a private ceremony, and have since become one of NYC’s most-watched political couples. Now, as Mamdani eyes City Hall, all eyes are on Rama Duwaji—the woman who may soon be NYC’s first lady. #RamaDuwaji #ZohranMamdani #NYCPolitics #PalestineSolidarity #SyrianAmerican #ArtistActivist #NYCMayorRace #MiraNair #ArabAmerican #FirstLadyNYC #BrooklynArtist #ProgressivePolitics #GazaArt #PoliticalIllustration #WomensVoices #IdentityArt #MuslimVoices #NYCNews #LoveAndPolitics #MiddleEasternArt ~HT.178~ED.346~
