International Day of Support for the Writers Guild of America The call to action Fifty writers braved the chilly November weather on Wednesday 29th of November to demonstrate support for their brothers and sisters in the USA who are campaigning for a fairer share of the revenues of movies and popular shows. The writers marched from Temple Bar to the offices of Twentieth Century Fox and Sony Pictures in Dublin. The event was co-ordinated by David Kavanagh of the IPSG. |

Jump To Comment: 1I did like the writers against war group who supported the marches- it seemed more principled
cos it wasn't about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. yeah! Mr American accent in sunglasses, don't sell cheap.
I prefer the books not the movies.
This is a union deal well done for supporting fellow writers but a bit of political vocalism
would be nice and a lot of writers seem unable to take on things in this country unless it s got
to do with $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
