Actions Speak Louder

There's been a lot of rumblings with the actors strike over the couple of weeks and months--comings and goings--yet the situation remains essentially stalled....That's why I have not posted any news about the strike of late....

Now--THR has the skinny on what's happening:

The Screen Actors Guild and the AMPTP - Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have agreed to meet Feb. 17-18 to re-engage in negotiations for a new TV/theatrical contract.

SAG and the AMPTP have not engaged in official negotiations since late November, when two days of meeting with a federal mediator ended without a resolution. Since then, the actors union has fought a brutal internal battle over whether to move forward with a strike-authorization vote that could lead to a work stoppage...

Here's hoping both sides find a way to resolve the matter...once and for all...jeez Louise folks!

Stay Tuned...
