More good news about the writers strike.

"LOS ANGELES — The striking Hollywood writers guild likely will bar its members from working on next month's Grammys telecast, a union spokesman said Tuesday."

We are finally getting more good news out of Hollywood. I hope more televised awards shows are affected by the writers strike. The less time people have to be occupied by stupid award shows where the ego driven industries of music and "entertainment" get to pat themselves on the back the better. Like the pro illegal immigrant groups who tried the "day without immigrants" with equal disastrous results I hope the writers are coming to realize that in the REAL world people's lives go on with or without them. Their are real people in America who have more pressing concerns than those of "Desperate Housewives" etc... Meanwhile, Bob puts it all into the proper perspective:

A writers strike may be a good thing.

There is a writers strike set for Monday. This could be a good thing. The world may be a better place if people start getting away from such lean back technologies as corporate television and actually start watching or producing their own content on places like You Tube, writing blogs and maybe actually reading a paper or a book.
