[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 3886141, member: 2525"] You keep putting this out like it's fact when it's not. The writer's share isn't based on the profit numbers you seem to think they are. They ARE part of those "cooked books". There is no allegation on the table from the WGA that the Producer's are inaccurately reporting numbers TO THEM. The writer's have a quite powerful audit right, the same right as the Producer's have in fact, and both the Producer's Union and the Writer's Union are working from the same sets of numbers for this issue. Again, people keep trying to portray this like the big corporations against the littler writers, when in reality it's the big Writer/Producers against the Producers, both of whom have been making good money all along and both of whom are simply arguing about how to divide their own profits between them. If you guys are going to continue to through this point out there like it is true, then prove it. And not by citing old cases from before the current system or concerning other parties, but from the WGA. Show me where they are saying they feel the profit numbers reported to them are false and cooked. [/QUOTE]
