Writers Guild of America issues strike rules as possible work stoppage looms
The Writers Guild of America has issued a list of strike rules to its thousands of members as a possible work stoppage loomed.
"While our WGA Negotiating Committee continues to bargain with the AMPTP with the goal of reaching a fair deal by the May 1st contract deadline, at the same time, we must plan for a possible strike," the union's negotiating committee said in a statement, referring to the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers.
A list of a dozen specific rules were issued, including guidance on honoring picket lines, preserving copies of unproduced literary material, and bans on discussing future writing assignments with struck companies.
