Netflix's latest Dave Chappelle standup special, "The Closer," has ignited a firestorm of outrage regarding the comedian's comments about the trans community. The scandal only deepened when Netflix boss Ted Sarandos sent an internal staff memo, standing behind Chappelle, leaving many employees to feel hurt and unseen -- and plan a walkout in protest of the streamer not pulling the special. While Chappelle's controversy is growing at Netflix, Hollywood productions are on the brink of shrinking down, as the IATSE strike has set a tentative date of this upcoming Monday, should a deal not be reached. All of this and more on this episode of The Take. http://bit.ly/VarietySubscribe http://www.facebook.com/variety http://www.instagram.com/variety http://www.twitter.com/variety
