Did not know he wrote Js jokes. Does he hold a SAG card?

Any member of organized labor that wastes their vote on republican gets what they deserve.

I certainly don't think he should have gone on the show, but he doesn't fit even the most liberal definition of the word "scab." I think it's important to note that he told reporters that he agrees completely with the WGA and supports them 100%. That's better than 90% of the Republicans out there would have said.

 

[lumax]

Again the word scab just gets thrown around w/o out really knowing what it means.
Per Webster's: Someone who works (or provides workers) during a strike.

I am pretty sure that is not what M.H. did when he attended the Tonight Show.
i am not condoning what M.H. did, nor would I do it myself, but doing so does not make you a scab.

 

[F/O]

Maybe not a scab....just a liar who crossed a picket line. He pretended he didn't know that only Dave had settled with the writers. He's smart enough to know that wasn't the case.

So how many of you ALPA cheerleaders watched the Tonight Show.... If you watched the show, are you a good union member??? Is watching the show undermining the efforts?

I don't really care about eithed side.... Both sides make good money and the quality has been steadily declining.....

 

[twepilot]

guess we could all vote for the Hill-a-monster and really be fukked.

Any member of organized labor that wastes their vote on a democrat is a sheep that can't think for themselves.

Not me. I'm not a Letterman fan, but I won't be watching any of the other late night shows until the WGA approves it.

If you watched the show, are you a good union member??? Is watching the show undermining the efforts?

I personally won't do it, but I can't say that it's "undermining" the effort unless you're one of the Nielson households that has metering equipment hooked up to determine ratings.

Sorry, but I have a hard time equating blue collar workers with a bunch of camembert eating writers that drive a Mercedes to the picket line.....

You need to get educated. The average WGA member makes a lot less than the average flight attendant. A precious few of their members make the big bucks, but it's rare. They are only asking for what's fair.

 

[BLUE BAYOU]

OK so nobody laugh until we get ours... No wonder this country's going down the tubes-- the airline industry will be the first of union unravelling as ALPA and other major airline unions capitulate to all of management's wishes. Maybe they can fight back with full-page newspaper articles or something!!!

I guess I can't think for myself then. NOT!!!!!

Maybe that's the reason for the strike. They are looking out for ALL members, not just a select few.

The average coal miner or auto worker is much better off than the average WGA member. You may know a hand full of lucky WGA members, but they aren't representative of the overall membership.

 

[Nindiri]

It won't break my heart if they stay on strike. Their writing sucks.

 

[Indy319FA]

Uh oh....looks like the Golden Globes are at risk.......

Maybe Bush should step in and stop this.....

Whatever shall we do without the Golden Globes?!?!?!

Mass panic.....riots.....the whole world will be out of control.......

Sorry, but I don't get all worked up about a bunch of guys and gals who can't go to work to write (insert favorite bodily function here) jokes for Leno or Letterman....

Maybe now they'll have to go out and work for a living....

like i've said before, it doesn't matter who we elect, they will all do an equally sh1tty job, but none will match the sh1tty greatness of which our current boy in office has reached.
