Writers are the creative minds behind the shows and movies we all love to watch. Their work provides the foundation for the content produced by the entertainment industry.  But since November 5, 12,000 entertainment writers have been on strike.

Writers are asking for fair compensation when their content is streamed on the Internet by the networks. Right now, writers get nothing for this work—and the studios want to keep it that way. 

Send a message to Hollywood executives: it's time to treat your writers fairly. 

Dear [ Decision Maker ] ,

As a television fan, and someone who cares about how a company treats its workers, I urge to you please return to the negotiating table with the Writers Guild of America to address their fair and reasonable contract demands.

Writers are the creative minds that power the entertainment industry. Their work provides the foundation for the content produced by your company and they should be compensated fairly for the work they do. I was disappointed and ashamed to learn that these writers aren't paid a dime for their work on webisodes. The entertainment industry should embrace new media, but not on the backs of its writers.

Please return to the bargaining table and resolve this strike. Treat your writers with the respect they deserve. I support the writers and will stand in solidarity with them until they get a fair deal.

Sincerely,
