, wasn’t able to make a deal last week with the Writers Guild of America, but he says he’s still willing to talk to the guild about a compromise that would address both sides’ concerns and put his agents and writer-clients back to work.
• Allows agency to accept fees for feature film financing and sales services, subject to disclosure and writer approval, for films with less than $20 million budget, and with Guild consent for films with budgets higher than $20 million.• Requires agency to provide an annual report on its diversity and inclusion efforts.
As for the guild’s demand for streamlined arbitrations, he said: “If that’s the last deal-breaker, I’m willing to talk to them about it.” One thing he doesn’t want to do, he said, is hurt the ATA, and if Abrams Artists were to sign a modified agreement with the guild, it would be the first mid-tier ATA agency to do so. Verve is not an ATA member.
Bold and Young spoke on the phone last Tuesday for about 20 minutes, but couldn’t come to a deal. Afterwards, Bold said that he was “disappointed, sad and perplexed” that they couldn’t come to terms. “I thought that I had a reasonable and fair workaround for our clients and staff to earn a living until they work out those bigger issues,” he said after talking to Young.
No deal. Good writers are a dime a dozen; good agencies, aren't.

Trump says he's considering executive order to add citizenship questionPresident Trump says he's 'thinking about' issuing an executive order to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census: 'We have 4 or 5 ways we can do it.' The census forms are currently being printed without the citizenship question, officials have said. A desperate failing attempt for his base. TrumpIsAMoron realDonaldTrump Go ahead, we will impeach U & if the GOP doesn't have the spine to do it in the Senate, we'll put you in jail for obstruction of justice, tampering with the Census, AFTER the election. Going over heads of the Supreme Court to steal elections is the final straw.

Did you migrate here in the last 10 years? Do you own or ever own a MAGA hat?
