Hey, guys—
Just wanted to let you know about an upcoming WGA meeting to continue the fight for fair treatment and compensation for reality TV writers.
Although the writers strike is long over, the battle for writers’ rights is not. Most reality writers work without equitable pay rates, overtime, or even insurance and retirement benefits. Some are even suing their production times for allegedly bilking them out of legal overtime hours in upwards of forty hours a week.
This Wednesday, June 18, the WGA is hosting its next meeting of Reality and Game Show Writers to discuss further plans for organizing the world of reality TV.
If you’re interested in attending, here’s the scoop…
WHEN: Wednesday, June 18, 8 p.m.
WHERE: TheWriters Guild West
7000 West Third Street
Los Angeles, CA 90048
This isn’t a meeting simply for reality writers… IT’S A MEETING FOR ANYONE WHO CARES ABOUT WRITERS AND WRITERS’ RIGHTS… whether you’re a screenwriter, poet, novelist, or reporter!
Hope to see you there!
