WWW

By special arrangement with the WGA, we interrupt out rerun schedule to bring you this fresh episode of WWW:

"I write this to you two nights before Christmas. It’s tough as hell to be on strike during the holiday season. Not only are we staging outdoor pickets and other events in the throes of winter’s cold, we’re without work and paychecks at a moment when gift giving and good times are very much on the minds of everyone around us, especially our friends and loved ones.

"Yet we know that what we’re fighting for is worth it, that we’re exchanging our temporary stress and discomfort for future gain and security, not only for ourselves but those who will follow us as wordsmiths and storytellers."—Michael Winship, President, Writers Guild of America, East (December 23, 2007)
