The Writers' Strike

As a consumer of many many tv shows, sure, the writer's strike sucks. But it's also completely valid. If you're looking for some really basic explanations of what it's all about and what it means, read Jenna Fisher's blog about it, and her (former) husband's. The video from the picket line at The Office is pretty great too. And how can you help the strike? Have sex with a striking writer, says James Gunn. And, because a fight about new media wouldn't be complete without some new media of its own, Variety's got a WGA Strike Blog going with daily updates. If you link back to me, I'll expect to receive my risiduals check in the mail soon. Or else I'll go on strike. Then, probably, blog about it later.
