The Fallout of Hollywood: Alec Baldwin and the Shifting Landscape
As 2024 draws to a close, the film industry faces unprecedented turmoil. Since early November, Hollywood has been grappling with significant backlash from the public, leading to the crumbling of long-held narratives and practices within the industry. This unrest appears to stem from the public's growing awareness and criticism of Hollywood's intertwined agendas—particularly regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards. Among the actors prominently caught in this storm is Alec Baldwin, whose recent remarks have ignited debates on celebrity responsibility and public perception.
