SAG strike: Stars join picket line in massive Hollywood protest - BBC News

A Hollywood mega-strike involving writers and
performers is likely to grind to a halt the production of
most movies and many popular television shows.
The last time members of the Screen Actors Guild -
American Federation of Television and Radio Artists
(SAG-AFTRA) walked out was in July 1980.
If the mega-strike rols on for months then
picturehouses could have problems, and viewers
could be left with nothing new to watch, except for
reality TV and live sport.
As sound stages across the US and other parts of the
world fall quieter as a result of the Hollywood
mega-strike, meetings between the guilds and
entertainment industry representatives will take place.
