Pleased to be featured in this week’s Written By to talk about multi-step deals for screenwriters, one of our hard won gains from the strike.

My team member Andrew Rhymer was among the first writers to get the new terms! You can read about it here: writtenby.com/guild-industry…

AB 2602 will protect against abusive A.I. practices and save careers. Support this bill and protect artists!

Elon Musk Least self-aware Tweet I’ve ever seen.

if we’re not careful this whole damn country is gonna unionize and all the workers we’ve spent so long dehumanizing are gonna start demanding dignified lives and wages and you’re not gonna be able to make $50 mil a year for just being a CEO who sucks shit at your job anymore 😔

SESAME STREET WRITERS HAVE A DEAL

Volkswagen worker says he was inspired by Writers Guild of America West strike

“Seeing the writers go on strike and standing up for the rights that was, I was so excited ….In the back of our minds was like, “Man, I wonder if auto workers, if we're going to start seeing something like that here”.

WB losing $3 billion while giving Zaslav a raise up to $50 million is the summation of every single thing happening in the entertainment industry right now. It begins and ends here.

we’re only now seeing the devastating impact of the strikes. is this really the hollywood we want, where even ted sarandos can’t say he earned $50 million last year? how many ceo’s will be priced out of their homes in Brentwood before we acknowledge the greed of writers & actors?

Elon’s Twitter “success” is a real Triumph of the Will… nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news…

Union Strong 💪

Thank you!

HUGE NEWS: The Writers Guild just won our biggest victory since the strike. We flipped a non-union “unscripted” show. Starting today, all of the writers on Ridiculousness will have WGA coverage, health care, and residuals. Let me explain how we did it, and why it's a big deal.🧵

WGA Members: The Writers Guild of Canada are in tough negotiations — and they just called for a Strike Authorization Vote.

In 2023, WGC members gave us their full support & patently refused to cross our picket lines. It’s our turn to have their backs. #StandWithWGC #WGCStrong

📢 Attention eligible WGC members! 📢 Make your voice heard and vote for our future! 🗳️✉️ Check your email and cast your vote. Voting is open from now (April 17) until April 23 at 3 PM ET. 🗳️✉️ #WGCSolidarity #StandwithWGC #WGCStrong

After filing for union recognition in July of 2023, the writers for MTV’s Ridiculousness have achieved their first contract! The agreement covers all writers on the long-running show, including Creative Consultants, Supervising Producers, and the Showrunner.

'S' is for solidarity! Show your support for WGA members at Sesame Workshop fighting for a fair deal before their current contract expires THIS Friday. #1u

No one wants to see a picket line on @SesameStreet. What would that even look like? Can Elmo hold a picket sign in his furry little hands? What would Oscar the Grouch shout into a bullhorn?
