Ka-ching!
George Clooney has opened his wallet, donating $25,000 to writers hurting from the recent strike.
The actor, 46, gave the money to the New York-based Actors Fund, which provides emergency relief for workers in the entertainment industry.
He said he planned to make periodic donations to the fund and asked other stars to do that same.
"My hope is that people who can afford it will take responsibility for this and help out," he told Variety.

Where is his donation to the below the line workers? Hmm? The hairstylists, cameramen, caterers, grips, etc? Because they make LESS than the writers and DO NOT get residuals from the repeats that will be playing. AND THEY ARE GETTING FIRED. I respect that the actors are sticking with the writers, but they need to stick with the below the line folk too and help them out even more.

Why doesnt he donate that $25k to the people that are losing their jobs around the worst time of year, the holidays, because of these strikers?! They have nothing to do with whats going on but their families, especially their innocent children, are the ones paying the ultimate price. Obviously, these strikers arent that bad off financially to be able to not show up to get paid for x amount of days and still manage to pay their bills. So selfish.

I think I love George but I know I love Simon Cowell.
25 grand to George is like 25 cents to me. No big deal.
Just sayin'.
