"have provided American audiences a way to laugh off their political anxiety.

That sounds like an exaggeration if I have ever heard one. Bitter foul people so negative about anything in life is hardly cause to laugh.

In the case of a strike, programs like “The Late Show,” “Full Frontal,” “The Daily Show” and “SNL,” that have voiced some of the toughest criticisms of President Donald Trump on national television, would face an immediate blackout, according to WGA-West executive director David Young.

**Yawn.**

I do not, nor have I ever, thought it funny when "comedians" vie with each other to say the meanest, most foul things about conservative politicians. These people will not be missed. Maybe they can be replaced with a genuinely funny line-up, where the so-called humor does not consist of lying and bullying.

A writer's strike? A showbiz shutdown? Good God...I think I understand how Aaron Hernandez felt.

Interesting considering the organized take down of O’Reilly. The left won big and many of us are blind to this. It started April 1 with the NYT article, followed by 50 companies withdrawing their ads and left wing demonstrators in front of the FNC HQ. Look at the protesters and their signs. Sexual Predator? Really?

http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-bill-o-reilly-accuser-street-protests-hit-fox-news-n747966
And here are the new BS allegations:

Attorney Lisa Bloom announced Tuesday that she is representing a new client who is accusing O’Reilly of “sexual and racial harassment.”

Bloom did not reveal the identity of the new client but said that she called the hotline Fox News set up last week to investigate claims against O’Reilly.

The attorney told The Hollywood Reporter that her client was called “hot chocolate” by O’Reilly and “was afraid if she told him to knock it off she'd get fired.”

>This time around, however, the dispute is a little different

The more we pollute America with ignorance, morons, islam filth and general rapeugee scum, the harder it is to salvage our butts.

Ignorance goes in opposite and parallel somewhat evenly, we must fight the bad and ugly and let the good roam free.

It requires honesty.

I never watch any of them either.

I used to see the one girl in ads for her show.

She would say something not in the least bit funny then display a smug look as if she had just said something brilliant.

Without seeing her show, I know I couldn’t watch it.

At least they admit they’re “anti-Trump voices,” and aren’t pretending they’re impartial comedians just trying to be funny, and it’s merely a coincidence they bash Trump so hard after giving Obama the kid glove treatment.

There are NO "good" writers anymore and truth be told, all of those shows listed ( and others ) STINK ON ICE.

OTOH...I am cheering for a writers strike....BIG TIME !

Because they reflect the issues of the day ― from Trump’s Easter speech to his daughter’s ethically murky role in his administration to his press secretary’s combative demeanor with the media ― late-night programs don’t have a real stockpile of material like other scripted shows and are left with no other choice.

No. It's because they have no talent, no morals, no judgement, and no scruples. They also do not have me in their audience of zombies.

As far as the Writers Guild of America, go ahead, strike. Besides streaming video I have stockpiled years worth of quality entertainment. Basically, I never need to depend on any part of the entertainment industry for the rest of my life. And I bet there are a lot more like me.

Praying the strike occurs and lasts for the rest of Trump’s term in office.
