And you thought film critics had it bad! Forbes has come out with dual lists of twenty fast-growing and disappearing jobs in the U.S. and 'actor' made the list of disappearing. I can't imagine how this squares with the constant proliferation of cable television shows, many of which require acting in some capacity or another. Reality TV acting is acting, to an extent. Many hosting jobs I would categorize as acting. There must be a big drop-off in stage acting going on to account for this. Could acting really be a profession in jeopardy in today's entertainment-crazed culture? This sounds suspicious to me.
