WRITER PRODUCER

A small slash-title pool under $5.9 million

$5,936,139 is the occupation-level dollar total. 5,195 is the itemization count. 228 is the donor-record count. Dividing dollars by lines yields about $1,143 per contribution. Dividing by donors yields about $26,036 per donor record. The repeat rate is about 23 itemizations per donor record. Five thousand-plus lines from 228 donor records is a concentrated entertainment-title pattern: a thin person count relative to the dollars.

Those means are arithmetic, not medians. The packet has no gift-size distribution, no party split, and no cycle series. A few large lines can lift $1,143 while most receipts stay smaller—or the reverse. This guide cites only the three harvested facts and the trivial ratios computed from them.

Mean dollars per donor record sit toward the high side in this dollar band. Because the headcount is 228, a handful of large itemizations can move the occupation total more than they would in a two-thousand-person pool.

How punctuation splits writer and producer

Some filers use a slash; others use a hyphen or list only WRITER or only PRODUCER. Those strings do not add into this total. LobbyVault keeps FEC occupation text exact.

FEC Form 3 (candidate committees) and Form 3X (PACs and party committees) collect occupation as free text on itemized Schedule A. FEC.gov publishes what committees reported. There is no drop-down of job titles and no license check. LobbyVault groups rows whose occupation field equals WRITER/PRODUCER after indexing. WRITER, PRODUCER, and WRITER-PRODUCER remain other occupation pages unless the extract normalized them to WRITER/PRODUCER.

Questions

How much have writer/producer donors given in FEC records?

Itemizations that list WRITER/PRODUCER sum to $5,936,139 across 5,195 contributions and 228 donor records in the LobbyVault index of FEC bulk data. The total is an exact-string occupation filter. Occupation is self-reported free text on FEC Form 3 and Form 3X schedules. Unitemized receipts never enter this occupation total.

Is WRITER included in the writer/producer total?

No. WRITER and PRODUCER are separate occupation strings. This page covers WRITER/PRODUCER only: $5,936,139, 5,195 contributions, and 228 donors. Mixing keys without naming each source total changes the unit. The occupation field is donor-typed on Form 3 and Form 3X. LobbyVault indexes exact strings from FEC.gov bulk data. Unitemized gifts never carry an occupation code.

Why is the donor count only 228?

That is the distinct-record tally inside this exact slash title. Many people file WRITER or PRODUCER and never appear here. Mean dollars per donor record are about $26,036 on $5,936,139. Cite the three packet facts with the exact occupation string. Source: FEC.gov Form 3/3X itemizations indexed on LobbyVault. Unitemized receipts are outside this total.

Where do I see the underlying receipts?

Open the WRITER/PRODUCER occupation page for the indexed table, then verify on FEC.gov. The occupation total remains $5,936,139. Confirm surprising amounts on the committee report at FEC.gov. Occupation matching is exact-string only. Unitemized receipts never enter this occupation total. Industry pages group employers, not this occupation string.
