And so the strike begins.....
The Writers Guild of America and studio executives could not reach a deal. Here are some reactions and news.
The LA Times has posted a rundown on how hit television series will be affected. All late night programs like The Daily Show, Late Night With David Letterman and The Conan O'Brien show will all go to repeats. Lost is only expected to have eight of its 16 episodes complete.
Tina Fey picketed outside of 30 Rock in protest.
John Stewart will pay his writer's salaries for the next two weeks to help the strikers financially.
Shawn Ryan, writer for the critically acclaimed FX series The Shield, has posted his reasons for going on strike. It is a good inside look and should help with a perspective to the strike.
While I am on the writers side of this argument, my fingers are crossed for a quick resolution
