To those criticizing the strike, you really should research the WGA's stance before doing so.

I'm willing to wager most of the complainers are avid watchers of television or film. Most writers get paid a pittance of what actors and directors make, yet are just as important in the success of a show. Great acting can never save horrible writing- ever.

At the top of this strike is alternative media (ie, internet viewing) compensation. Whereby, writers are getting jacked big time.
