Kim Kardashian slammed by writers' strike protesters after tweeting from the 'American Horror Story' set
- Writers' strike protesters are calling out Kim Kardashian over a Friday tweet.
- Kardashian checked in with fans while filming "American Horror Story" and was criticized.
Writers' strike protesters criticized Kim Kardashian after tweeting from the "American Horror Story" set on Friday.
"Hi guys! I'm on set of AHS and we have some time between shots. What are you all up to????" Kardashian wrote.
The writers' strike, which started in May, is ongoing until the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers agree on a new contract regarding writers' pay.
The tweet, to her almost 75 million followers, resulted in over 2,700 replies.
One of the top replies was from "Loot" actor Joel Kim Booster who tweeted: "Picketing, Kim." His quip got over 6,700 likes.
Another SAG-AFTRA member responded in part, "Sitting at home since no work due to strike."
"Do you realize there is a strike happening?" another user inquired.
Despite pushback, the SKIMS founder continued to reply to her fans. She even assured one user that this season of "AHS" would be "scary."
This isn't the first time the cast and crew involved with "American Horror Story" has been criticized amidst the strike.
According to Variety, the show's creator, Ryan Murphy, denied claims earlier this week that "AHS" crewmembers would be punished for participating in the strike.
Murphy called the allegations, which spawned from a since-deleted tweet from TV producer Warren Leight, "absolute nonsense" in a statement.
According to Screen Rant, season 12 of "AHS," which also stars Emma Roberts and Zachary Quinto, is set to premiere in August 2023.
