CW: No Talks Yet, but 'Model' has 'Contingency Plan'

Backstage: "In a letter to affiliates, CW chief operating officer John Maatta said the show will premiere as planned Sept. 20. Show reps added that all 13 episodes for the show's run through December already have been shot and have been unaffected by the walkout by a dozen of 'Top Model's' writers/producers, who are demanding recognition as members of the WGA."
