Finke’s Source: Strike
Is ‘Done, Basically’!!

I am – Hercules!!

Deadline Hollywood Daily’s Nikki Finke, who seems to be the go-to girl when it comes to all things strike-related, has been told by a “very reliable source” that “there appears to be a deal seemingly in place between both sides.”

The key paragraph:

"It's already done, basically," the insider describes. That's because of the weeks worth of groundwork by the Hollywood agents working the writers guild leadership on one side, and the studio and network moguls on the other. I was told not to expect an agreement this week. But my source thought it was possible that the strike could be settled before Christmas.

Read all of Finke’s piece here.

In the event Finke’s source turns out to be a big giant liar, learn how fans can in the meantime support the writers here.
