Just in: Writers Guild rejects Abrams Artists Agency offer to drop packaging fees

The Writers Guild of America on Tuesday rejected an offer by Abrams Artists Agency to abide by key WGA terms, rebuffing the mid-tier agency’s attempt to break the stalemate that has paralyzed the representation business for almost three months and forced Abrams and its peers to stand by as the union battles the top agencies.

“Honestly, I’m disappointed, sad, and perplexed by this decision,” said Abrams chairman Adam Bold. “I expected that we would have a common goal, which was to put people back to work in the interim while the litigation is going on, but instead it seems that the WGA has other priorities. I don’t have the desire nor the resources or energy to spend trying to engage in negotiations on the sort of agreement that a union makes with the trade association. I’m not a labor negotiator.

“We cannot agree to what you are proposing,” said WGA executive director David Young to Bold in an email obtained by“We've now negotiated a whole, new AMBA with many terms that are better than the old agreement. We opened the contract after 43 years because writers don’t like it. We cannot make an interim deal that takes us back where we were in 1976. … We’re in a three month struggle to get a deal that supersedes the 1976 AMBA, not one that uses it as a benchmark.
