As a writer, I am in support of the Writer’s Guild of America Strike. It appears that the Writer’s Guild of America is the Weak Spot of Hollywood and the Entertainment Industry in America.

For too long, Hollywood and the Entertainment Industry has been self centered with the big stars receiving the big money while the writers who have families of their own receive the crumbs from the tables of Hollywood Executives, Stars, and those of the upper echelon in Hollywood and the US Entertainment Industry.

While it is understandable that the actions taken by the Writer’s Guild of America may affect television shows, Broadway Plays, and even late night comedy; the Writers have a right to strike in order to receive their fair share of the salary in Hollywood. While most people are asleep, it takes a writer in Hollywood and the US Entertainment time to think of a concept, write it down on paper or on a computer screen only to have the star, the producer, or the director change his or her mind a thousand times before reaching a «perfection» that will never exist.

After all is said and done, the elite in the US Entertainment Industry is never grateful to the writer. The Credits as well as the High Salaries go to the Stars and Directors. The One Liners belong to the Comedian or the Politicians instead of the writers. Even Ellen De Generes could not do any jokes because of the Writer’s Strike. Maybe she refused to support the strike. Maybe she is dependent on her writers.

Eva Longoria [even though her role in Desperate Housewife is a disgrace] was able to show her inner as well as outer beauty when she distributed pizza to the strikers. Eva Longoria is very intelligent as well. She is aware that without the writers, Desperate Housewives would be off the air, and she would have to find another job modeling.

Jay Leno and David Letterman have threatened to take action against those who are in the strike [or at least that has been rumoured]. Both shows have had to broadcast pre recorded programmes of the past secondary to the strike.

Whatever happens, I SUPPORT THE STRIKE BY THE WRITER’S GUILD OF AMERICA SINCE THEIR WRITERS ARE MY FAMILY. AS A WRITER, MY FELLOW WRITERS HAVE MY SUPPORT, MY THOUGHTS, AND PRAYERS.
