The Strike Defined



Some interesting tidbits concerning the WGA strike...

John August, screenwriter of "Big Fish" and "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", has written an enlightening explanation of why WGA members are on strike in Hollywood. If you're confused about the whole thing, read his blog post here.

Damon Lindelof, co-creator and executive producer of "Lost", has written an article titled "Mourning TV" for the New York Times about the future of television and how the strike will impact Hollywood in years to come. Read here.

Finally, Seth Worley has posted a video of The Office writers on strike outside of NBC. It's a must-see. View here.

As a writer, I understand the desire to be compensated for your work. Let's just hope both sides can come to an agreement soon. I don't know if I can wait much longer for "Lost" Season 3.

Don't forget about the local 1 union strike in NY! There goes any hope of Saturday Night Live returning to greatness!
