The television industry's uneasy transition to the digital age was the driving force behind the most significant labor dispute of the twenty-first century. The strike put a spotlight on how the advent of new-media distribution platforms is reshaping the traditional business models that have governed the entertainment business for decades. The uncertainty that sent writers out into the streets of Los Angeles and New York with picket signs laid bare the depth of the divide, after years of industry consolidation, between the handful of media barons who rule Hollywood and the writers whose works support the industry. With both sides afraid of losing millions in future profits, a critical communication breakdown spurred a brief but fierce fight with repercussions that continue today. The saga of the Writers Guild of America strike is told here as seen through the eyes of key players on both sides of the negotiating table and of the foot soldiers who shocked even themselves with the strength of their resolve to fight for their rights in the face of an ambiguous future."--Publisher's website. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 650 0 Writers Guild of America Strike, Calif., 2007-2008.|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2013000147 650 0 Strikes and lockouts|xTelevision broadcasting|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2013000148|zUnited States|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 |xHistory|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002006168 650 0 Television writers|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85133631|xSalaries, etc.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00007913|zUnited States|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781|xHistory|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2002006168 650 0 Television programs|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85133602|xEconomic aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005484|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Television programs|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85133602|xSocial aspects|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00002758|zUnited States.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n78095330-781 650 0 Digital media|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh98006600|xInfluence.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002005444 650 7 Strikes and lockouts|xTelevision broadcasting.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1904810 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Television writers.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1147146 650 7 Television programs|xEconomic aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1147031 650 7 Television programs.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1147026 650 7 Television programs|xSocial aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1147057 650 7 Digital media.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/893716 651 7 United States.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204155 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aLittleton, Cynthia.|tTV on strike. |bFirst edition|z9780815610083|w(DLC) 2012044994 |w(OCoLC)795164622 830 0 Television and popular culture.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2007129089 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=714471|zOnline eBook.
