    I saw this this morning on some entertainment show. That show said that writers would get paid for online content. I don't know how much, or where anything fell with the other demands, but I know the online content was their main beef.

    I saw on another board (not nearly as cool as this one ;) ) that union leadership is ready to bring an offer from the producers to the rank and file. The same article said that the rank an file may not be very happy with what is coming and may turn it down.

    It might have been Nikki Finke's Hollywood column.

    But if the membership says no, then it's back to "Moment of Truth" for me.

    I hope the writers are getting their due, but sweet Jesus, I was starting to get worried about no Lost for an entire year.

    They used writers? I thought they just used a bunch of orangutans for that show ...

    That's Family Guy, and you're thinking of manatees.
