I read an opinion piece about this, using the same examples, at time.com
last week. The first half of the article was predictable, about
cross-casting and representation. The second half became more interesting
as it questioned the authenticity of female Jewish stories when Jewish
women were excluded. The counterexample the writer offered was Broad City
where Jewish women not only played the lead roles, they wrote the series
and had control over the stories that were told.

Silverman is piggybacking off that article, using the same examples, which
will amplify the story. On the other hand, she wants to make it more
inflammatory and less thoughtful.
