Jeb, Vik and ech — Good posts! I’m curious to read Steve’s response.

“It looks like the writers are shooting the whole industry in the foot–willfully and stupidly,” as Grant Tinker, well-known producer, said about the 1988 writers’ strike.

“Stupid.” Just what Steve quotes Eisner as saying about the writers this time. To the producers, it will always look stupid for writers to look out for their own interests.

But who else will?
