Hell yeah! Union Strong!
Edit:
Looking at some of these responses, it’s disheartening to see all the anti-union tropes again. Bootlickers gonna lick, I guess.
Even if a deal is struck, the members still have read and then vote on the contract. If it’s a bad contract, then it’s back to the line. The UPS deal was also behind closed doors, and it turned out great for us Teamsters. It’s all about who you put into the leadership role and it seems like the union heads for the writers guild has their back.
What responses? There’s like 13 comments in here all supporting unions.
I am so excited for the writers, but remember that for Hollywood to totally get back to work, SAG-AFTRA needs to end their strike too, and their demands are even more stringent than the writers. So there may still be a ways to go.
That said, the AMPTP knows that if these strikes don’t end by October, they won’t even have any shows for the spring.
I wonder what their AI concessions look like. Sounded like the studios were offering nothing around those demands before.
Well, as long as they get a fair deal, we’ll be happy for them.
Do take anonymous sources with a grain of salt though. Keep your expectations low, anything can happen at this point.
