End of Writers Strike
A deal between the major media companies and the Writers Guild of America made out the strike to the end, the writers’ strike that has been affliction to the entertainment industry. The former Walt Disney chief executive Michael Eisner revealed on CNBC.
“A deal has been made, and they’ll be back to work very soon,” Eisner said, adding, “I know a deal’s been made. I know it’s over.”
As a result of studio cutbacks, however, many of the writers who went on strike are unlikely to return to the same big-money contracts they’d had as individuals with the studios, Eisner said.
