."What To Make of The Directors Guild Deal?"
http://www.workinglife.org/blogs/view_p
An excerpt:
"Before looking at some of the specifics, in my humble opinion, whatever the deal is, it has to be absolutely clear to the DGA--even if they may not want to admit it because the DGA historically sees itself as the elite among the Hollywood unions--that the strike by the Writers Guild of America strengthened the DGA's hand. Big Media has been rattled by the strike and, obviously, wanted to reach a deal with the DGA to try to, then, bring some closure to the WGA walk-out."
Tasini is a former union organizer and negotiator. He also ran for Senate in New York State.
