“Squid Game” increased the value of Netflix by an estimated $900 million. It also made South Korean writer and director Hwang Dong-hyuk famous — but not rich. In his contract, he had forfeited all intellectual property rights and received no residuals.

Writers rooms started. Stages/crews are being reserved. But as I said during ours, it won't be THEIR DATE that ends the strike. It will be YOUR DEAL. This is the pain part. Success & failure are BOTH options. The only thing that matters at the end of a war is how you finish.

They had a much more favorable hand last time & failed. What genius there thinks that in THIS moment in the country for labor, they'll convince the public that multi-millionaire CEOs, corporations, & Carol L are unfairly maligned& more deserving of sympathy than their workers? 2.

Can't say it enough:FLOOD THE PICKET LINES. Go whenever you can, even if it's for a hour. This far in, it's hard.But during THIS part of the negotiations, you MUST be a show of force on the lines. You guys are almost there! Give your neg-comm the strongest hand. #SagAftraStrong

Again, @MattBelloni gets some key points wrong. the WGA is NOT seeking the right to stay on strike w/SAG even if we make a deal. We're seeking to NOT CROSS SAG's picket lines--much as the Teamsters have done for us. 1.

By the way, if you start seeing DGA leadership using the word "misinformation", it is because they don't want to you to point out the gaping holes in their mediocre deal. It is the DGA's version of "fake news"--which is what you shout when you don't like the facts. #WGAStrong

Iger on SAG strike: Actors are amazing and we love them, respect 'em. "I can only say we're optimistic will figure it out very soon." Says SAG strike's impact so far has been "negligible" but soon won't be. "We're all -- SAG and companies--hard at work to solve this."

They did this in 2007. Start talks, offer little to nothing, then break them off, claiming our leadership is being intransigent. They do it to break our spirit. I don't know if that's what's happening now, but I would rather be prepared than surprised by their bullshit. 2.
