SAG update: Will there be a deal before Monday's deadline?

It doesn't appear likely the Screen Actors Guild will make a deal with producers before tomorrow's deadline, but the union seems determined to demonstrate that it hasn't given up at the bargaining table. In a statement released today, SAG President Alan Rosenberg reassured Hollywood that the union has yet to call for a strike authorization from its 120,000 members and that any talk of a "strike or management lockout at this point is simply a distraction." Said Rosenberg, "The Screen Actors Guild national negotiating committee is coming to the bargaining table every day in good faith to negotiate a fair contract for actors."

It's not the richest actors who are affected by this. It's the middle class actors who need financial help. A listers negotiate their own contracts, irrespective of union mandates.

Not happy about a strike with people that make a ridiculous amount of money for what they do. I'm thinking about canceling cable t.v. and boycotting movies.

Here we go again!

Another strike would infuriate me to no end. I recognize that the A list pay cheques the the big stars get do not equal out what a lot of actors get and that there are some dirt poor actors however let's be realistic...another strike would place a massive blow on a town that is still recovering and while it would not spell certain doom for the industry the consumer was exhausted by the WGA Strike and I gurantee you people will suddenly start to love their cottages and books a hell of a lot more if another strike were to go down.

I certainly hope that a deal will be made and that strike will be averted. I didn't suffer from watching less television during the writers strike - au contraire - and my viewing habits have changed radically since. Another strike could have similar affect...
