I’m not a union fan but I have to side with the writers on this one. They really are getting screwed out of money they earned and with the advanced technology they do need to fight what is rightly theirs. That being said, yes, there’s a lot of crap on the big and small screen today, but, what we see is not determined by a writer. If a network or studio doesn’t like a script it’s either trashed or rewritten. Believe me, this can cause a lot of headaches when working in episodic TV. Writers do not have the final say on what is made.
