|    Writers Strike: Day 23 - Carson Daly    |
|    27 Nov 07 10:20:47    |
      From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu               Carson Daly's scheduled to resume tapings of his show, without       writers I presume:       http://www.reuters.com/article/entertainmentNews/idUSN2744388720071127       for an example.               You can't blame the networks for wanting new episodes: all the       shows have taken nasty ratings hits, although somehow Letterman's had       less of one than Leno has even though Letterman seems to be sticking       to the two weeks from before the strike to show. (I have no idea what       Leno's showing.) It's hard to not see this as probing to gauge reaction       from writers, other unions, and audiences before pressing Conan and Leno       to go back on the air, either.              --        Joseph Nebus       ------------------------------------------------------------------------------              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
