KenWritz, I just read this. Thank you.

I had no idea how important this battle is.

My support goes out to you or anyone else who is affected by this strike.

Thanks, otter354

The strike doesn't affect me professionally, sad to say, but, damnitall, I wish it did! lol....

Jameliz and anyone else out there in the trenches has my sympathy and encouragement.

The NYT online (http://nytimes.com/) has several articles as well.

The goals are worth fighting for; wish the WGA membership all the best.

Thanks Kenwritez for posting this. I see this strike as the biggest and most important battle that will be fought for years to come. I'm hoping those on strike watch the flanks and hold the line.

Another great source of info is The Huffington Report, many striking writers blog there and it is really quite a good page.

Thanks to Ken for enlightening us all. I especially loved the third link . . . "speechless," indeed.

Hoping against hope that this thing gets settled soon. As a veteran of the ad biz, I am quite familiar with the inherent insecurity of making your living by writing. Not fun!
