- Mark Ruffalo came straight from his art class to share a message of solidarity! Thank you @MarkRuffalo ✊ #WGAstrong #RallyattheRock tiktok.com/t/ZTRE9mTH4/
00:00 - The @DrewBarrymoreTV Show is a WGA covered, struck show that is planning to return without its writers. The Guild has, and will continue to, picket struck shows that are in production during the strike. Any writing on “The Drew Barrymore Show” is in violation of WGA strike rules.
- The WGA and AMPTP have reached a tentative agreement. This was made possible by the enduring solidarity of WGA members and extraordinary support of our union siblings who stood with us for over 146 days. More details coming after contract language is finalized. #WGAstrike
- “There is no cinema and television, there is no entertainment, there is no profundity of storytelling without what writers do.” Collin Farrell and Michael Kelly out on the Times Square picket line in solidarity! #WGAstrong #WGAstrike #1u

00:00 - Netflix is demanding shareholders approve over $166 million in retroactive executive pay for 2022. By contrast, the writers strike ends if Netflix agreed to a contract that would cost the streamer an estimated $68 million a year.
- "I sincerely hope the strike gets resolved, and writers are given a fair deal as soon as possible. This is an iconic, meaningful American industry & we need the writers—and all the workers—to tell the stories of our nation, and the stories of all of us." - @POTUS #WGAStrong #1u
00:00 - The WGA reached a tentative agreement with the AMPTP. Today, our Negotiating Committee, WGAW Board, and WGAE Council all voted unanimously to recommend the agreement. The strike ends at 12:01 am. Check out our deal at wgacontract2023.org/deal. #WGAStrong
- The Drew Barrymore Show's WGA writers, fans, and our union allies held the picket line for 8+ hours outside of CBS. #WGAstrike
- Starting at midnight, @sagaftra, WGA East and @WGAWest will be on strike at the same time for the first time in 63 years. We're making history, while fighting for the future. See you on the picket lines until fair contracts are reached. #WGAstrong #SAGAFTRAstrike #1u
