Yeah makes sense, that’s usually how negotiations go. But it’s a start!

Well well well…

Dear Members,

Your Negotiating Committee received a counterproposal from the AMPTP today. We will evaluate their offer and, after deliberation, go back to them with the WGA’s response next week.

Sometimes more progress can be made in negotiations when they are conducted without a blow-by-blow description of the moves on each side and a subsequent public dissection of the meaning of the moves. That will be our approach, at least for the time being, until there is something of significance to report, or unless management uses the media or industry surrogates to try to influence the narrative.

The Guild always has the right to communicate with our members and will do so when we think there is news you need to know.

In the meantime, please continue to demonstrate your commitment by showing up to the picket lines: for yourselves, your fellow writers, SAG-AFTRA, fellow union members, and all those in our community who are impacted by the strikes.

In solidarity,

WGA Negotiating Committee

This could end next week? Or another 2 weeks? Idk but things are moving

I know he got a VICIOUS phone call

Hopefully it ends before September. Ppl in my union are saying that if it doesn't, we won't see work until January because of the amount of stat holidays in October - December.

Is he the dude from green arrow

I’m at this show too so that caught my eye soon as he came out lmao

Crine.

His agent definitely berated him like Les Grossman

What does this mean

So if a script was written by a member of the WGA, SAG won’t allow an interim agreement for that project, even if it’s an indie. Unlike SAG, the WGA doesn’t have an interim agreement term that they set since their projects are written before production starts.

This contributes more to the work stoppage and puts more pressure on the studios and streamers because they will more than likely buy these indie projects to distribute them down the line

Alright thanks for the explanation

Looks like the AMPTPs offer to the WGA is out there

Writers strike over soon?

This good or bad?

Looking like things are mostly going the WGAs way
