Impending Writers Strike Looms Over Hollywood's Future.
TL;DR Summary
The Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) has said that a strike authorization vote by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) is "inevitable" as the union prepares to release the results of the vote. The AMPTP is currently negotiating a new three-year film and television pact with the WGA, with the current agreement set to expire on 1 May. The WGA has been pushing for higher compensation for writers, including higher wage floors, standardised fees for streaming and theatrical films, and a minimum number of weeks of employment.
