You're mixing a lot of things.
Creative jobs, whether journalism, acting, writing, music, etc. have always been a difficult business.
Creator economy is no different than the poor musicians 30 years ago.
The fall of unions and rise of gig economy is more concerning. But unrelated to entertainment industry, which has always been insecure/underpaid/risky..
Side note: when I heard how taxies used to be rented on per-day basis by the driver, I'll admit I became less sure the gig economy was a step down.
