Meanwhile, the WGA also weighed in with its response to today's news that the DGA is ready to set the date for its AMPTP negotiations after the first of the year.
Said the scribes:
"The DGA announced today that it may commence negotiations with the AMPTP in January. The DGA has to do what is best for its membership, and we will do what is best for ours. We wish them well, but they do not represent writers. Our strike will end when the companies return to negotiations and make a fair deal with the WGA."
Dear DGA members: You're welcome. You're going to get a much less crappy offer because of our work on the picket lines. Just remember: for us to come _off_ those picket lines, it's got to be a _good_ deal, not a less crappy deal. And I really, really do hope you get it. Good luck.
