    WGA negotiators want to be called heros (and continue being paid to be negotiators), so of course they’ll say they won even if they didn’t.

        Negotiators: We won!

        Members: Oh thank you, we were worried, we really need this over.

        Someone who reads the fine print: Uh, this is terrible.

        Large enough percentage of Members: Hey didn’t you hear them it’s over quit nitpicking!

            I think writers need this to be over so they can get back to work. This isn’t just fun summer break going on here, peoples lives are being put on hold. Doesn’t mean it’s a good deal though.

              They can’t “get back to work” if AI is taking their work. I think they’re aware of that. But maybe they’re all idiots.

                  It’s not a good deal. That’s my point. That’s why I don’t know why the writers would vote for it.

                    So when they inevitably do, will you crown me and say kind words about my prowess in predicting the future? Or maybe just recognize that the writers simply want this over…
