WGA Strike May Be Over

(Reuters) - Striking Hollywood writers could be back at work as early as Monday for the first time in three months if they embrace terms of a tentative contract deal that union leaders are expected to present them this weekend. The outcome hinges on meetings set for Saturday in New York and Los Angeles where rank-and-file members of the Writers Guild of America will be briefed on a labor pact taking shape in talks with studio executives over the past two weeks. Sources familiar with those talks have said a breakthrough was reached last Friday on key issues of paying film and TV writers for work distributed over the Internet, and the two sides have been busy since then fine-tuning contract language.
Well, it's about time. Michael Eisner is going so far as to say "It's over," and that the writers "would be insane if they turned" down the terms of the new deal.
