More waste of Tax Payer Dollars
The federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has begun an official investigation into the lack of women behind the cameras on Hollywood movie sets.
The EEOC has reportedly sent letters to roughly 50 female directors urging them to share any stories they may have of facing discrimination in the workplace, reports Deadline.
“We greatly appreciate your willingness to share your personal stories and the obstacles which you have faced in pursuit of success within your profession,” reads the letter sent out last week by the EEOC’s Marla Stern-Knowlton.
In its letter, the organization said it would “continue to vigorously enforce Title VII’s nondiscrimination requirements. Title VII prohibits covered employers from discriminating on the basis of sex.”
Several of the women who received the letter voiced their support of the federal investigation.
“I would like the EEOC to take legal action against the studios, the networks and the commercial production companies to make them comply with the law,” commercial director Lori Precious told Deadline. “I hope they force people to change the way they do business because Hollywood is not exempt from the law.”

It looks like the current administration will not be happy until they've driven every movie shoot to Canada.

All the [bleep] going on in America right now, and THIS is what the Fed's are up to?
Reminds me of when the housing crisis kicked off, and congress was holding hearings on freaking drugs in baseball...WHO freaking cares when we have so much legitimate chit to worry about.

And after all that money those Hollywood producers have been raising for the Party.

For the life of me I can't remember the name of the directors of some of the best movies I've ever watched. I know they got rich but their names, ehh, nope. Unless it was Eastwood directing something he was acting in.

I suspect they are up to A lot more than this all of it just as stupid. I saw we spent a bundle to see if watching old reruns of American TV helped overcome stress in Vietnamese villagers. The waste goes on for ever, but we need to keep raising the debt limit don't you know. All the [bleep] going on in America right now, and THIS is what the Fed's are up to?
