WGA的強有力的遊行和集會活動公平合同期限有一個節日感到拉布雷亞瀝青坑蘆薈Blacc和靴子Riley的現場表演。Blacc說他在那裏唱的作家和他希望“有更多的我可以幫你,但是他站在“團結一致”(見下麵的片段)。雖然有現場音樂,不公正的感覺從上千個強大的編劇作家參加遊行和集會活動公平合同甚至更大。談判WGAW董事會和委員會成員亞當•科諾菲爾組織這次活動吸引了大歡呼時,他指出,作家被支持的一係列其他工會,包括演員、導演、司機、門衛和脫衣舞女。相關的故事“貪婪”已經從舞台上的主要信息隨著罷工的50天。“我們都在一起,我們都是同樣的鬥爭,為可持續的工作麵對企業的貪婪,”科諾菲爾在舞台上說。“我們不計劃所有這些遊艇被虎鯨攻擊…但這證明大海本身是站在我們這一邊。空前的支持,我們從未見過的,這就是為什麼我們會贏。我們將取得勝利,因為(工作室)需要我們。作家的盯著一個空白頁,我們發明了漢字的人,告訴觀眾愛的故事和寫笑話,他們就沒有我們,他們的每一美元從美國開始,我們將在這裏直到記住為止。” Aloe Blacc speaks to supporters at the WGA Strong March & Rally in LA today: “I hope it shows that we, entertainers in the entertainment industry, stand in solidarity with you…” #WritersStrike pic.twitter.com/iujd5JeSrP WGA board member Liz Alper, who has written on The Rookie and Chicago Fire, said that despite public perception, the majority of Hollywood writers have been historically middle class. “When streamers like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon and Apple came into our industry, the studios exploited the changing landscape of our business to increase their profits at the expense of our livelihoods,” she said from the tall stage. “The combined revenue of the eight companies at the AMPTP table last year was $1.3 Trillion. It would cost them a quarter of a single percent to restore sustainability to the writers’ careers in Hollywood. What the studios value more than money is power. To allow writers to share in the profits of our work would mean sharing the power the studios hoard so desperately and to the AMPTP, power is a cause worth fighting for, employees are not.” Former WGA West President David Goodman added that writers were “being crushed under the heel of corporate greed”. [Today] really just speaks to the fact that the fight that we’re in is not just our fight, that so many people, not just working in our business… recognize that… it sounds cliched, but we’re being crushed under the heel of corporate greed. All we want is a good wage and fair pay for work and that connects with all these other people, all these other workers, all these others,” he told Deadline. Many other unions were well represented during the event, including Lindsay Dougherty, who runs the Hollywood’s Teamsters Local 399 and has become a breakout voice during the strike. She told Deadline, “We will continue to support the WGA and their fight with the AMPTP, we all have to remember that the AMPTP, this is their strike, they caused this, they shut down the industry so we all have to stick together. We have to keep going until they get a deal that is fair and just and we will continue to support labor forever.” WHY I’M STRIKING: “We will continue to support labor forever…” – Lindsay Dougherty, Local 399/International Brotherhood of Teamsters #WritersStrike pic.twitter.com/saT3o2RXZj
