Writer's Strike Could End Soon

Article

According to the Wired website, it has now been announced that the writer's strike could be at an end. Writers have been showing interesting in the Studios' new deal. Of course, a better deal might come at the cost of the industry, so the writers don't have that much choice.

This is significant because the American populace has been forced to do without their television shows and whatnot. Were the writer's strike to finally be over, then television shows and other media would finally return. The writers would get a better deal. The studio heads would be forced to pay their writers more.

Personally, I think this is a great thing. I've been forced to do without my favorite tv shows for far too long now. It's about time they get back on the air. While I sympathize with the writer's plight a bit, it's not like they don't already get paid large sums of cash. And they've caused large amounts of damage to their industry. So the strike coming to an end would be good.
