: Legal Pad | LAWriters' expected to end strike this week
By Jason Siegel
Members of the Writers' Guild of America will vote tomorrow on whether the strike should continue, with guild leaders recommending the new contract.
The tentative contract pays writers for TV shows and movies playing online - after the content has been online for 17-24 "promotional" days, the Associated Press reported.
Writers share of movies and televisions shows sold online would be doubled and get $1,200 per year for the first two years hour-long webcasts are online, the Agence France-Presse report.
Former Writers Guild associate counsel and TroyGould attorney Jonathan Handel provided his analysis of the deal (here) yesterday, ultimately supporting the new deal as the best deal the writers can get.
