Ethan Drogin:
$259.71: That’s how much the “Suits” episode I wrote, “Identity Crisis,” earned last quarter in streaming residuals. All together, NBCUniversal paid the six original “Suits” writers less than $3,000 last quarter to stream our 11 Season 1 episodes on two platforms.
But many artists are certain that what is broken about Hollywood isn’t just compensation. It’s what’s being made and why.
