Here is what the ten highest paid Hollywood executives... denying wage increases & protections for writers... make each year: #WGA #WGAStrike #WritersGuildStrike

@efyre THIS!

Last I checked: The Writer's Guild is:

STILL ON STRIKE!

Day 41 since May 2, 2023 when the WGA strike began.

#DirectorsGuildOfAmerica reaches "truly historic" deal with Hollywood studios

The Directors Guild of America reached a new three-year deal with Hollywood studios on Saturday night that increases #wages, streaming #residuals, scales back hours and more.

The #DGA began negotiations with studios last month, amid the ongoing #WritersGuildStrike, which could continue through the end of the summer. The current contract is set to end on June 30.

Quick one-liners, taboo gags and humorous reflections are all elements that comedians and comedy writers use to make us laugh. So with the limitations of artificial intelligence, do you think it could be funny? Entertainment writers and tech experts explain the possibilities.

"Scab" is as bad an insult as "fascist."

I've never crossed a picket line. Obviously I wouldn't do it for the Writers Guild strike: the fact that people I respect would look on me with contempt would be sufficient reason by itself.

Drunk at a wedding, started to explain the #WritersGuildStrike to half a table somehow.

So now that social media sucks and entertainment is inevitably going to suck very soon, can we all go out into the woods and be witches again? #WritersGuildStrike #Witch #WritersStrike #SocialMediaSucks #Nature #GoOutside

On a lark I signed up for #writesonic , it's kind of a swiss army tool for GPT information. I was interested in how it would write contemporary articles, so here's something I had it write for the current #writersguildstrike

https://app.writesonic.com/share/ai-article-writer-v4/8e92b643-d038-42b3-9428-ba4940042844

It has not been checked for accuracy or anything, this was just a test of how well it does.

writesonic is a pretty neat tool overall, puts all kinds of subsets at your fingers in a kind of studio. (not a sponsor)

@Radical_EgoCom
Not to scare anyone, but the 2007 WGA strike led to the rise of "Reality TV" (b/c it didn't need any writers.)

And if that's not scary enough, that's how we got #TheApprentice... which led to #TheOrangeMenace becoming president. 😵 #WritersGuildStrike

IN CASE YOU EVER WONDERED why there's no much (IMHO "annoying") #RealityTV shows on every channel, look no further than the 2007 #WritersGuildStrike. That's when the networks "discovered" they could produce TV shows w/o any writers.

If you don't think that's big big deal, I remind you that THAT is how we got #TheApprentice (and eventually how he got to the WH.) 😵 @WagnerTonight @ThomHartmann

The strike is on, because the studios are greedy, and workers deserve to make a living wage.
