Hollywood's Writers' Strike

[BarTopDancer]

If the studios had agreed to look at the 'new media' options and the lack of compensation the writers were getting from it instead of pulling "their too bad so sad what always was will always be" card I doubt we'd be where we are today.

Instead, the studios decided that the writers shouldn't get reasonable compensation for their work that was distributed in 'new media' format (while the studios make profit off of it). So the writers aren't going to work. If the writers all found other jobs no one would be left to write the shows.
