The Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike will end at 12:01 a.m. PT on Wednesday.
Bad move by the WGA boards. While I hope the TA is good and meets all demands, the workers literally haven’t seen it yet, let alone voted on it. You always want to have the strongest strike possible, and part of that is that no work gets done until a new contract is delivered, approved, and put in place. This puts the union in a weak position if the TA gets voted down.
While that may be true, they are probably also weighing that this has been a long strike. I don’t know about you, but if I had to go 100+ days without working, my finances would be a wreck. Reality is, people gotta eat

Not sure how the WGA operates but it’s pretty common to have reserve funds for strikes as well as doing fundraisers and whatnot
Unless the board is just lying, it sounds like they got everything that they were asking for?
If that’s the case, how is it a bad move?
Are there examples of this happening before?
