Re Drew Barrymore crossing the picket line:

Remember that once non-WGA writers cross the picket line, they won't be able to join the union later, should they want or need to. It's worth reminding them of this.

Drew Barrymore is not only scabbing with her show, she's hosting the National Book Awards, with Oprah Winfrey as the Special Guest.

Please show solidarity with union workers at large and let the National Book Foundation that you are not okay with a scab hosting these awards; scabbing hurts everyone; screenwriters are writers too.

An update from the National Book Foundation, regarding Drew Barrymore crossing picket lines for writers.

tl;dr: they aren't siding with the striking writers so much as shying from the bad publicity.

Still, it works.

@romancelandia

seem to have reached a tentative agreement for a new collective contract.

Here's the message, shared on twitter by Adam Conover (of "Adam Ruins Everything"):
"We did it. We have a tentative deal.

Over the coming days, we'll discuss and vote on it, together, as a democratic union. But today, I want to thank every single WGA member, and every fellow worker who stood with us in solidarity. You made this possible. Thank you.
