 multi2 WHAT IS THE STRIKE ABOUT?

 

As everyone is well aware the writer's strike is going on now in full force and a lot of our favorite shows are being plunged into reruns because the greedy studios refuse to give the writers their fair share. If you would like to help the writers to put pressure on the networks to give them a fair deal, please use the email addresses below to contact the advertisers.

See, the advertisers are how NBC and all of the other networks make the majority of their profit. The advertisers buy commercial time or they buy ads on websites like nbc.com and this is what creates billions of dollars in revenue for the networks. What we cans can do is email these advertisers threatening to boycott their products unless they force NBC and the other networks to get back to the bargaining table for the writers.

It's something small we can do to support these great writers who give us such great entertainment and who are only trying to get a deal that's fair to them. Above is a youtube video explaining what the strike is about and why the writers are striking. It's a great video and clarifies it all.

Below is a list of NBC advertisers. The goal is to send as many emails to these advertisers a day as you can. The more we fans bombard them, the more effective it is. If you have any questions please feel free to email me.

In your emails to the advertisers  just let them know we are going to boycott their products unless they do something to pressure the networks into solving this strike.
