Now Playing: Uncertainty

Backstage: "Against the backdrop of a faltering economy, Hollywood took a step closer to another strike after talks between the Screen Actors Guild and producers broke down Nov. 22. Following weeks of separate meetings, federal mediator Juan Carlos Gonzalez brought SAG and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers together but could not break the five-month deadlock over a new three-year television and film contract."

This has got lunacy written all over it. Call a strike, when jobs are scarce as it is. Sure, it will put pressure on both sides but everyone will suffer from the lack of work in the process. Not really a good time to be screwing around with the status quoe when putting food on the table might become questionable for some.
