<title>Producers Guild: Include Us Out of AMPTP</title>
<description><![CDATA[<p><img alt="producers_guild_150.gif" src="/fishbowlla/files/original/producers_guild_150.gif" width="150" height="137" class="alignleft" hspace="7" /></p>
<p><strong>FBLA</strong> has been waiting for this. The <strong>Producers Guild of America</strong>, which isn&#8217;t a guild like the others, but more of a <a href="http://www.producersguild.org/pg/">trade association</a>, or even a club, wants to make sure that they&#8217;re not confused with  the <strong>Alliance Of Motion Picture &amp; Television Producers </strong>(AMPTP), aka the bad guys in the WGA strike. <strong>Vince van Patten</strong>, president of the PGA, is sending out emails, making sure that everyone knows who&#8217;s who:</p>
<blockquote><p>The WGA&#8217;s battle is with the studios and networks&#8211;the Allianceâ€”not with producers. It&#8217;s true, the last &#8220;P&#8221; in AMPTP stands for &#8220;producers&#8221;.  But that designation is a vestige of a time long past, when producers and studios were effectively synonymous.   </p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Nikki Finke </strong> will use the term <a href="http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/is-amptp-producers-or-really-big-media/#respond">Big Media for AMPTP</a>.</p>
