@Ms.Delphine1204 you are right. Its a symptom of the degeneracy of our clture😢 however, seeing the thumbnail with the title, i actually thought for a sec that Drew was redpilled and was apologizing for her knee-fall infront of Dylan Mulvaney

Drew doesn't like fake people. She most definitely doesn't want to be considered one. She doesn't think she did anything wrong and doesn't fully understand why she's having to make this apology, that's why all the shrugging. She understands that she has upset certain factions of people, and, in typical people-pleaser form, she apologizes for that, but not for crossing the strike line. She believes her heart was in the right place when she did it so she's not sorry about doing it, but she IS sorry that she upset people, and that's what she's apologizing for. - That's my take on it.

I have the same thing! But it's slight and doesn't happen all the time. I was actually fascinated by Drew Barrymore when I was younger because I heard the lisp in some of her lines/roles, but not others. I also tend to have asymmetrical expressions where one side of my mouth goes up more than the other. I only noticed it when I got my first drivers license photo. I think because of the resemblance to contempt, people interpret my genuine smile as a snarky smirk. Do you think that's coincidence or do you think I've unwittingly changed the way I move my mouth to avoid the lisp?

If there weren't so many liars in this world, then maybe people wouldn't be so suspicious. Drew's a good enough actress to be able to put out a decent apology video even if she were lying, so this is just her honest response.

I’m also puzzled why people can’t see that 😕

On the Stroop test, I actually did the second phase much faster. Initially, I was anticipating ignoring the words and focusing only on the colors. But when I noticed they matched in the first phase, it tripped me up and I took twice as long comparing the color with the word to see if they really all matched. In the second phase, after I saw the first two didn't match, my brain was more readily willing to discount the words, which meant I could simply focus on the colors, which was faster. 🤷‍♀️ I guess you could still explain that as incongruence slowing me down. It's just that my expectation was incongruent with the reality based on your instructions. It also reminds me of how when someone lies quite often, it makes me more willing to discount what they say... the incongruence (between their behavior and words) becomes so predictable that you form an expectation of incongruence... then your expectation of incongruence is incongruent with reality when you encounter congruence... lol

When my girls were little, when apologizing, they had to say what they were apologizing for, and why they were apologizing. This way, they understood others feelings, and why something was wrong. They're grown now, and they, and their children, still think of others, and teaching their little ones the same. It teaches empathy and boundaries...and sometimes setting their boundaries, and expecting others to understand. Their are few arguments, many talks, and true relationships.

I also have an unfortunate tendency to giggle inappropriately during serious moments, so I personally can't fault her for that. I did notice that she spends a lot of this video not looking at the camera, which makes me wonder who she was talking to. I keep thinking back to the previous WGA strike of 2007-2008. Jon Stewart was still the host of *The Daily Show* at the time, and he brought his show back before the strike was over as well, for some of the same reasons that Ms. Barrymore articulates. I remember that he got some pushback from it as well (Seth MacFarlane famously called him out for it). Unlike Ms. Barrymore, Jon Stewart stood by his decision and refused to apologize for it. It makes me wonder: Has there been more public pressure on Drew Barrymore now than there was on Jon Stewart back then, or was Jon Stewart just better prepared to handle it? And if there's more public pressure, I wonder why that is. In 2007-2008, social media was still in its nascent stages; is it that the Freelance Shame Squad is more organized now, and better able to apply more pressure more quickly? Could gender be a factor? Drew Barrymore is a woman and, not only that, a woman who became famous mostly for playing characters who were naive, fragile, or vulnerable. Does that make it easier to criticize her choices than it would be to criticize a man like Jon Stewart? Or do her critics feel that they have been holding back and not saying everything that they could have said for fear of the optics? This video raises more questions than it answers for me.

Was wondering when The Daily Show would come in here. I don’t know if Jon Stewart is a part of SAG? At that time people definitely knew who he was, but it’s different here. If you don’t know who Drew is you’ve kind of been living under a rock. I think this whole thing has been way blown out of proportion. These strikes are obviously big for everyone involved. If she were shooting a film I would have way more opinions on her behavior. But she’s not. She has responsibilities to everyone on that set. everything and every job related to her show. As for gender, women can never win. If she made a video she was putting herself in the spotlight. If she didn’t make an apology she was wrong for making a video. I know this goes for men as well but not to the same degree. And social media DEFINITELY plays a role in all of this. If she takes it down it shows she didn’t feel responsible. If she kept it up she would be narcissistic. She’s between a rock and a hard place here. I think the real reason this is getting so much publicity is because it’s Drew Barrymore. Thank you for coming to my TEDtalk.

@@hannahremmel9550 Jon Stewart is a part of SAG. He went on record at the time saying that he took his role in the famously unsuccessful animated movie Doogal so that he could keep his SAG membership (and, therefore, his health insurance). Seth MacFarlane explicitly mentioned SAG and Jon Stewart's perceived disloyalty to it when calling him out back then. (I say "perceived" because MacFarlane certainly perceived it that way. I don't know if anybody else did.) I think you're right that both social media and gender are factors; however, I don't think that they carry equal weight, and I'm just wondering the percentage that each contributed, which may not be something that can be quantified and given an exact answer. Also, I do believe that there were other factors involved as well. I believe Drew Barrymore when she says that she didn't expect backlash from putting her show back on the air, whereas I think it's possible, perhaps even likely, that Jon Stewart anticipated the backlash and was prepared to answer it.

This is a great analysis of a complicated video. I’m wondering if you have watched videos from her talk show for more conversational baseline and not movies where she is playing a character? Also, I find women in general will demonstrate more reaction formation facial expressions (smiling when feeling something negative, giggling when actually feeling embarrassed, etc.). Do you consider gender specific differences in your analysis? I think we are seeing inner conflict. She doesn’t think what she did was wrong on the one hand. But she also may not have anticipated the anger, but more importantly hurt, that her decision caused. The “that’s not who I am” comment I think gives insight into her understanding she hurt people in trying to help others. Hence all the shrugging. She felt damned if I do and damned if I don’t. Maybe that is why there is so much conflicting signals and ambiguity.

She felt it was important to continue with the show because there are other people this strike impacts financially.

The most important aspect when someone is making an apology when they really mean it they wont say they are sorry or apolgize but instead ask for forgiveness which lets the victim make the decision that will leave the door open with humility...so if the victim slams it in their face then that is how it will be left to remember and that shows no compassion or respect which was worse than to give them an honest explaination of how much the victim was affected and why they are closing the door with acceptance or not. This is what i remind myself when i have made a mistake that i need to ammend and coming to acceptance with closure on behalf of the one i hurt in the process.

Too many people feel bullied into apologizing for making a decision that other people don't agree with.

I actually flew through the second word list much faster than the first list, because I kept thinking I was going to get tricked if I just assumed every word was going to be written in color the word represented, so I went as steady as I could consistently verify. The first list seemed untrustworthy with how easy it was, whereas the second list was a more fair showing of what I expected the task to be. Just an interesting little deviation from the prediction, I think.

If you want to say “My intention was not to hurt you”, that’s okay but even that isn’t necessary. This in no way applies to physical harm, only words. I grew up saying “Stick and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me”. Meaning, I will not allow what someone says, to injure my own self worth. Still true today.

Good for her!!!!!

I'm not a fan of "should", in the sense of, she should have supported the strike, or she shouldn't have made a video. I don't feel comfortable with the moral judgment that implies. Was it wrong for her to ignore the strike, even if she may not agree with it? Was it wrong for her to care about her crew who don't have a net worth of millions, to weather such a storm? I don't feel that I am in a position to have a valid opinion on the matter. I do believe I can say with confidence that if you're truly apologizing for something that was viewed as callous and selfish, the word "compliance" would never enter the picture. Thus, I get the impression that she is packaging acquiescence as an apology because that's what everyone expects. I think what she really wanted to say was, "I'm sorry that I upset everyone. I didn't think this was as big a deal as it turned out to be. But I see your point, so I'll comply with the spirit of the situation." Of course, you can imagine the backlash if she said anything like that.

Agree. Never watched her show, but as an interview show, how is she crossing the goals of the writers? If it’s about solidarity, then shouldn’t that include KZread creators continuing to broadcast entertainment such as this channel? Where does it end? It appears to me, that this controversy is just another attempt to divide people against each other. It seems that the attacks on American businesses are endless. Edit: I say this as someone who has disdain for “celebrity,” the entertainment industry and the propaganda they promote.

Spot-on, as usual Spidey. From the video it does seem like Barrymore is certainly distressed at people’s reactions - but it seems like she either doesn’t truly understand why what she did was wrong, or she just doesn’t want to admit it. Though the aim of the video seems to be her taking responsibility for her actions, she doesn’t.

The exact things you described in Drew is the reason I couldn't get into her talk show. Also, the weird room she filmed in was all I could focus on😂😂😂

Glad we got a video on this one. Because like so many others I found her apology a bit strange. When she compared the strike to the pandemic I actually got a little grumpy. during the pandemic, entertainment was badly needed to at least try to keep everyone's spirits up. We all know there is a big difference with the whole world suffering, and her taking a minority and stabbing them in the back. She shows no loyalty to those who have supported and fought to make her what she is. Feels like she thinks she's in trouble for wanting to entertain, when in reality she's in trouble for letting down someone who could really use her support. Even after her so-called apology, it feels like she thinks they're insects she can stomp on and crush at will. And that's not okay for many of us.

I imagine she, and her staff, were under very stressful work conditions, and I imagine she’s responsible for a lot of people’s livelihoods. The strike and contract negotiations were long (and it’s not over yet). Everyone in the industry was effected. She was probably doing the best she could, under the circumstances.

She wasn’t even wrong bringing her show back, of course the people in these strikes turn against their own people and add to the toxicity making them all look bad.

Her show had 3 writers on staff (and all 3 were WGA), so the show does indeed employ and "need" writers. I used "had" because those 3 writers handed in their resignations once the wga strike concluded, in protest of Barrymore's actions. That being said, I'm not sure if the wga strike demands had any bearing on the employment conditions for writers in daytime network programming, since as I understand it the strike was mostly about conditions for writers on streaming shows/films. This dichotomy might have been a factor in Barrymore's (temporary) decision to move forward with her show despite her writers striking.

Ok. Great video, great comments. Here’s my contribution. If she was sympathetic to the workers who were affected by the strike she had 2 easy solutions as methods. Firstly contribute to the official strike fund, and secondly, set up an independent strike fund for those affected by the strike but unable to access the official strike fund. I am a union rep and was a picket line supervisor in the UK. My union has a strike fund - they all do- which is a pot of money put aside from membership fees that striking workers who are union members apply to and it gives a financial payment so your income is supported. Anyone can make a donation to a strike fund to be dished out as the strike is on and wages are affected. She could have then set up a separate fund for non union workers in her employ who were being affected to access. She would have been viewed pretty positively then! When a strike is on, its so important to show solidarity. It takes enormous effort to ballot, organise, rally and become an activist. And it takes courage. Striking is very exposing. It’s a significant event in her professional world, it is not an event she is distant from. She is an employer and businesswoman. Her show would have recognised the union. Politically, this is extremely serious as a statement and she can’t claim ignorance. Personally, for me watching this and listening to Spidey, I have dismissed it. It’s a very strange response to crossing the picket line deliberately and showing contempt for the striking workers and the unions who work for workers’ rights. Unions are designed to help and support working people, and the reps are all workers who volunteer as committee members for their branch. And, I can assure you, if people are at a point when they vote to strike as their last resort when all other avenues have failed and the talks have collapsed, it is a monumental decision. Then to rally and march and stand together on a line is utterly incredible. It takes enormous courage, solidarity and resolve. The resolve is one aim: to make it better for everyone. My union fought and won better pay and conditions for everyone at my workplace, that included all those who hid, crossed the line and the managers who fought us in the negotiations. Unless you are part of union activism you really have no idea what’s involved.

Let me start by saying I do not particularly support Drew for many reasons, so this isn't me defending her necessarily. Just stating my thoughts I guess. I don't understand the backlash. Granted, I also don't fully understand unions nor exactly what is being protested. All I do know is that the reasoning she gave, that there are a lot of other people that are out of work right now because of this strike and they need to work, seems like a very legitimate concern and reason to go back to filming the show. As far as I know, she even cut out some sections of her show that the writers would have been involved in to continue to supporting them and their strike. So like I said at the beginning, I don't understand this backlash. But I usually don't understand the reasoning and opinions of the people on the Internet that are "screaming" the loudest. Even though they are a small minority of the general population, they usually get their way because they are the loudest, like the old saying goes, "The squeeky wheel gets the oil "

And unfortunately with the great majority of union-related situations like this, the people below who is by all standards "the reason for existence of such organizations/institutions" will suffer more than the people at the front saying everyone should sacrifice and are the ones who can go months to years not working. And by the end of it, those who sacrificed more will get less. Yeah, they will get something (and is why unions are still a thing and deserve some support) but significantly less than the very people who convinced them to sacrifice their daily living.

Thank you Spidey. I didn't know why she was trying to apologize. Agree with your take on it.

That's a great point about the celebrities trying to look all "humble" and relatable in these apology videos. I think it's in part like you said, that they want to give off these "I'm just like you!" vibes, but I also think it's a way to try to elicit sympathy. They want to seem as though they've been agonizing over this for hours or days, almost like they're trying to convey the idea that they're soooo stressed worn out from the whole ordeal and the backlash they've received, so they're subconsciously begging people to go easier on them. That's my opinion, anyways. Though I do also think what you said is accurate, too. Great analysis.

The Stroop test reference was such a great analogy! I see these used in neuropsychological testing in brain injury to assess processing speed and selective attention, and seeing it here to demonstrate our difficulties with incongruity in social situations makes so much sense. That selective attention that makes us think twice when things feel ‘off’ is illustrated beautifully by your choice! The test highlights executive dysfunction which, in brain injury where the prefrontal cortex is compromised - it’s why people with elevated difficulties here struggle with social cues!!

I feel that it would be good to point out her mention of paralysis in her Golden Globes speech, in regard to her talking out of the side of her mouth. My mouth slightly droops down on one side, which makes the other side appear more expressive. I think that’s all it was; not contempt. I think she is apologizing for upsetting people. Even though she may not owe an apology if she thinks she did nothing wrong, I can relate to that as well; as a person who hates for people to be upset with them. I think she meant well, but was sorry for any hurt she caused. As for the quick emotional transitions, in my own personal experience, because my emotions feel raw and I am very reactive, I can be moved to sadness or even tears, in a flash. I’m guessing it’s due how I manage anxiety. Maybe she is similar. I’ve seen her do this a few times in other instances.

Thanks for your information. You’re always very interesting. 👍👍

I agree with your conclusion that she took the lesser of two evils. In terms of formulating the delivery of an apology, I feel that the "statement of intent" portion should be more towards the start of the delivery. The second half can then be the apology portion, or the "people who think what i did was objectively wrong won't change their minds so this isn't for them" portion can go on the 2nd half. Instead, she reversed the order, which only makes her sound like she's being either defensive or manipulative or stalling for time or all 3, and it's certainly confusing for the listener. Actually it would have been better if she had worked with a PR person (or even just a friend who's objectively better at PR than she is) to get this strategy and delivery right.

The backgrounds of all these "non-PR" actor apologies remind me of the "AI" generated backgrounds of a lot of photo editing software where you can actually tell it what you want. I'm going to tell the one I use I want "actor apology peasant room" and see what happens. As far as behavioral stuff, two things occur to me, now that you've done so many analysis on actor apologies (and really interesting analyses for the record!) It seems to me that there needs to be more studies done STRICTLY on actors because they have such a different baseline when they are speaking to a group, that needs to be taken into account and it would be helpful to have specific data on them. Secondly, (and Spidey I think you might do consulting with actors for roles?) actors could really improve their craft if they studied behavioral science. In fact, I'd love to know who has and if they've won more awards for their roles. Anyway, I have a really hard time seeing Drew as anything other than the result of being a child actor in Hollywood. She's how old now? And she is surprised that she got flack for deciding to go against a strike. Sorry but your red-eyed crying face and shack background aren't enough for your actions here. *shrug*

Haven't watched her apologize vid or all of this video yet. But I've noticed as what I believe my understanding that when she talks about something uncomfortable, embarrassing or emotional ... she smiles. Almost like, are they going to believe me? Before she even gets started or disconnected to feeling and words. She's ALWAYS done this. To what degree idk. Also, this is Her show! She's not the camera guy, the light person..... so on. So she understands they're upset and already know crossing a picket line is a problem before she does it, but It's Her show. She's doing what she has to do. And she's sorry everyone is upset but she doesn't have control over how they feel! Since when does anyone have control over how anyone else feels? She's a person first!! She'll have a huge sigh of relief when the strike is over too! Then they can go on to the next thing I guess! Lol. 😂 I'm glad I'm way over here in Nobodyville Indiana!

Curious your thoughts with the Stroop test - the first set was actually harder for me because I was expecting the word and the color not to match so the fact that they did match was tripping me up but then the second set was easy because I was expecting the color and word not a match

I felt similarly!

There's a study I read a couple years ago, that may actually be part of the Stroops test, that in the first part had the participants read the colors like you did, Spidey, then they take a step back & repeat the test & the step back literally "rewires" the brain to respond quicker & more accurately. I don't remember the percentages, but it was a marked improvement. Anytime I'm struggling, or I see someone else struggling I do this or suggest this & the clarity that comes is very calming (at least to me bc I feel more positive & capable moving forward). It's impressed people as well bc they found it "so awesome", etc. & helpful. On a funny note, in the movie "Fever Pitch" with Drew & Jimmy Fallon, & Jimmy's character points out (as something he likes about her) how Drew's mouth is 'crooked' sometimes when she talks. Drew is only about 4mos older than me & I've noticed that crooked smile my whole life. It's an endearing Drew quality 😁 Ironically, my husband does the same thing & it's soo cute (even sexy🤭)! Thanks for another great video Spidey! Have an amazing day!

She wasn't saying she was complying with people who disagreed. During this video, she was saying she was still going to do the show even after the initial backlash. She's saying she's going to comply with WGA rules. (She has now decided not to film after the additional backlash after this video, which is probably why it was deleted.) Also, to everyone saying that they are sick of celebrities being forced to make these videos, no one is forcing them (outside of maybe their PR team). The public isn't asking for apologies after their actions/decisions, they are simply expressing their feelings on them. The celebrities are making these videos to save face with that audience and basically beg them not to stop supporting them.

Hey Spidey, that Scoop test was painful lol I am colorblind so ended up spending more time stressing over if I was seeing the right color or not instead of just saying the colors and seeing the words😂 On Drew Barrymore, I'll start off by saying that I am a fan of her and her work but this time it felt like she dropped the ball, it felt like "If you don't feel sorry for what you did, why are you making an apology video? Just own up to the fact you believe in the choice you made." It did help her explaining the WHY she did it even if I don't fully agree with her. The Writer Strike is not the same as a Pandemic. Her charm is working against her in this video since there are a lot of time where it feels shallow almost. Sadly, I think this is one of those situation where there is no winning. Thank you for the analysis.🙏🏽

Stroop

The one thing I'm learning, is to trust no-one on either side in Hollyweird.

For the Stroop Test, I'm a slow reader so I was faster when I knew I didn't have to read the words and only recognize the colors.
