Send an email to an executive on one of your favorite shows. I sent one to my favorite new show Life. I love me a good cop drama, especially one with Sarah Shahi in it.
And if you are on Facebook, don’t forget to join the 1,000,000 fans strong for striking writers. I hear word that there will be some fun actions coming up soon.
In light Chris Lehane's recent hiring by the Film and TV Producers to work against the WGA, does anyone know the official position of the California Labor Federation on this? Back in October Lehane was brought on board to fight against Gov. Schwarzenegger's health care plan. According to the SacBee:
the campaign is being directed by a prominent Democratic political consultant, Chris Lehane, who was hired by the California Labor Federation, AFL-CIO. The effort also includes the Service Employees International Union as well as consumer and faith-based groups.

Somebody should ask Cal Fed Chief Art Pulaski if they are still using Lehane's services?

Looks like the writers and the studios are going to be heading back to the table on November 26th.
The strike will continue as planned through next week. And the writers have not agreed to stop striking.
But if the story is true, this is absolutely positive news.
