New York May Become First State to Incentivize Diversity in Writers' Rooms
Thanks to two new bills currently gaining traction in Albany’s assembly and senate, New York may become the first state to incentivize adding diversity to a production’s writing staff.
The bills, A7373 and S5370, would modify the existing production state tax credit, so that certain New York writing income would qualify as an eligible expense. A company would have to employ women or people of color, and a portion of their New York salaries would qualify for the credit, which hasn’t been the case previously. It’s capped at $50,000 per writer, and an overall expenditure of $3.5 million a year.
“In a $420 million credit, it’s sort of a drop in the bucket, but we think it’s important as a way to diversify writers’ rooms in New York,” said WGAE executive director Lowell Peterson.
Should SCANDAL's Big Death Be the First of Many?
On a show where nothing ever truly changes, one character's death may usher in an era of new progress. Even if they won’t win any awards and aren't widely considered “serious television,” shows like SCANDAL are, most weeks, highly enjoyable. Every now and again, they'll throw us a bone and make a decision that can't be reversed. That was the case Thursday night when, following last week'’s cliffhanger (naturally), the husband of the president’s chief of staff (played by Dan Bucatinsky) was assassinated by the head of top secret spy agency B-613.

Eric Braeden on how men are portrayed on TV and the watered down scripts for Y&R's Victor Newman vs. Ian Ward scenes
"There's a tendency in this country — dictated by revenue — to make men look like a------s. They do that in order to sell products to women. Look at most commercials! The men are portrayed as schmucks! As boobs! As doofuses! The kids are smarter than the men. The wives are smarter. It happens in comedy series all the time, too. The man is the idiot and the woman is always raising her eyebrows or rolling her eyes in exasperation. I resent the hell out of that and it ain't gonna happen with me and my character!"
"I did not like that they watered down the script for those scenes. I honestly don't know what happened, but we were not allowed to do it the way it was originally written. It was not what it should have been. But Ray Wise is a wonderful actor."
