SAG-AFTRA Criticizes Sony CEO for Blaming Strikes on Offshore Production Moves
SAG-AFTRA’s Duncan Crabtree-Ireland has taken a strong stance against Sony's Tony Vinciquerra for attributing U.S. production shifts to union strikes and contract negotiations. Vinciquerra pointed to international tax incentives, drawing productions to lower-cost countries. Crabtree-Ireland dismissed these claims as an excuse to exploit cheaper labor abroad, emphasizing fair compensation and local job protection as priorities.
