Michael Eisner: WGA Strike Is Over

Is the WGA Strike over? We’ve been hearing unconfirmed chatter that the strike was ending on Friday for a while… now brother blog TVNewser is reporting that Disney’s Michael Eisner made an appearence on CNBC’s Fast Money last night to tell host Dylan Ratigan that the WGA strike “is over.” In Eisner’s exact words: “It’s over. They made the deal, they shook hands on the deal. It’s going, on Saturday, to the writers. A deal has been made. They’ll be back to work very soon,” Eisner predicted. “I know it’s over.”

“One thing that is great is, talent will win out. Talented writers will get new deals,” Eisner said. “But for the short term it was a mistake.”
