On December 19, 2007, the Los Angeles City Council conducted a hearing about the economic impact of the Writers Guild of America's strike. Hundreds of WGA members were on hand to listen and voice their concerns about the strike's impact on the community. Representatives from the producers did not attend.

  • If I was in the AMPTP I would not show up either.

  • Where's the mayor? Does he belong to AMPTP?

  • Well said Mr. Garcetti, and the AMPTP were a bunch of chickens for not showing up

  • this whole business is so ludicrous on the part of the production corporations, the writers should just abandon broadcast media entirely in favor of the internet.

  • This is a TWENTY YEAR contract. Do you think the internet will be anything like it is today in 20 years? The web will be the primary distribution platform for all media in twenty years... probably a lot sooner. Studios know that. (Meanwhile, will Webcasters become union signatory distributers like the studios?) Hey WGA - don't forget us reality editors. It is your weakness as we will see in January. Please unionize us.

  • Keep at it folks, I'm support you 10,000%!

  • keep at it, writers. We'll get through this thing.
