@MichelleJigga Don’t worry. Everything is going to be aok.

Looks like the @WGAWest forgot to negotiate for dinner. #wgastrong (but getting #wgaweak from hunger).

[Jon Sherman - WGA Captain @shermanjon]

If I had three wishes my first wish would be a limited documentary series about this strike with @ItsMeCarolAMPTP narrating, and the finale would reveal the writer behind the digital veil. My second wish would be super speed. #wgastrong

It’s not a last, best, or final offer till the @WGAWest & @WGAEast accept it — or the companies accept not being in the scripted entertainment business. #wga

@WGAWest

[Writers Guild of America West @WGAWest]

To clarify:

August 11: Initial counter offer from AMPTP
August 15: WGA offers counterproposal
August 22: AMPTP publicly releases unchanged offer from August 11, ignoring WGA's August 15 counterproposal entirely

Yes, it was Gus’s birthday and yes that’s @WGAWest President Meredith Stiehm posing with him, but THERE WERE @kogibbq BURRITOS!

[Jon Sherman - WGA Captain @shermanjon]

@slack2thefuture Who got the better deal, though, Sweden or Germany?

[Jon Sherman - WGA Captain @shermanjon]

If @PFChangs and @Cheesecake got in a fight over @ItsMeCarolAMPTP who would win? Wrong answers only.

At #Frasier, 19 different writers are credited in season 1, including 6 teams. My first full season was 7, when we had 13 different credited writers, including one team. Numbers stayed roughly the same thru season 11.

We needed every last writer.

@MikeRoyce Minimum staff size is the counterweight to AI.
