  Also doesn’t mention how big the tax credit was. I mean, if it was a $20 million tax credit but the $143 million was actually spent on local goods, services, and employees, then that’s still great.

  “Zero Day” also participated in New York’s film and TV tax credit program,”

  Because the lead actors aren’t part of local spend.

    Even if they are local actors? And if that aren’t, how much more could be spent in that area if they were

    And okay, l gets say you are right, they barely mentioned where 40 million went, where did the bulk of that money go?

    If you didn’t pick up on it, what I’m suggesting is that the break down in the article was extremely light on where about 100 million dollars was spent where the article claims cause it and like that’s a lot of bidding information

      Lead actors would be contracted centrally from LA, while day players and local recurring roles would be NY actors.

      They’re basically talking about monies paid to NY contractors for construction, stages, crew, locations, catering, accommodation, equipment rental and materials.
