David Zaslav's attempt at a commencement speech was interrupted by students showing their support for the ongoing writers strike.
Due to the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike affecting the entire Hollywood industry, the CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery, David Zaslav, was met with a negative reaction when he tried to make a commencement speech at Boston University.
As a reminder, the strike is looking for studios to give better wages to writers, as their work is essential to any production that goes in front of the camera. Due to how their contracts haven't been largely modified in years, the compensation writers get for their scripts is no longer fair, and they need better job security if studios want them to continue bringing their best to the screenplays that generate a lot of money for them.
