The Writers Strike and Jay Leno’s Monologue

The Writers Guild apparently says it’s OK for Jay Leno to do his monologue, but if writes his monologue then he has crossed the picket line. As I explain in this PRI blog post, such a position quickly leads to absurdity. The union advocates would have you believe that they are merely withholding their own labor to show how important their contribution is, but everyone knows that their tactics go beyond that.
