Writer’s Strike finally coming to an end
According to E! Online the Writers Guild of America strike may finally be coming to an end after just over thirteen weeks. “We are 99.9 percent of the way there,” one source inside the negotiations said. “As of late yesterday, just a few small issues remained.” The strike has cost the industry well over $1 billion.
Although I would probably side with the writers, who want a raise in their residuals (The amount of money made from subsequent airings and purchases of a show or film), if I didn’t love some of American TV at the moment, I can’t help but breath a sigh of relief: Lost and Prison won’t be delayed any longer, which is highly important - things like this are my heroin!
Let’s keep our fingers crossed.
