Message To The Companies Represented By The AMPTP In The 2008 SAG Negotiations

The AMPTP has been negotiating with SAG for a total of 28 days since April 15, 2008. We are frustrated and discouraged that on June 12, with 18 days left in the month, SAG's Hollywood leadership is already saying that it’s unlikely a deal will be made by June 30th. We hope that this statement does not signal the intention of SAG's Hollywood leaders to bring our industry to a halt. We remain committed to working as hard as we can to reach our fifth labor agreement of 2008 by June 30th.

*sigh* I don't see how LA could handle another strike, though... maybe they'll make an agreement July 1? ;-)

and thanks, suzy! if it weren't for your updates, I would have no clue what was going on!

Thanks for the post Suzy! I really appreciate it!
