WGA War With Talent Agents Hits Milestone: Now Longer Than Its Bitter 100-Day Strike Against Studios In 2007-08

The 101-day battle between the WGA and Hollywood’s talent agencies has surpassed the guild’s 100-day strike against the film and TV studios in 2007-08

have been at loggerheads since April 12, when talks first broke off for a new franchise agreement that hadn’t been renegotiated in 43 years.

In its “statement of purpose,” the guild says: “Our agents work for us. Every dollar they make must be generated as a percentage of the money we make. That is what it means to be our representatives and our fiduciaries. Agency-based studios and packaging fees make a mockery of that and are in violation of the agencies’ ethical and legal obligations to writers. We have taken too long to demand that these practices end. But the persistence of a corrupt system does not make it right.
