Get real

Writers for reality TV shows invaded a breakfast for TV executives today in order to demand better pay and benefits. Rest of the story here, though you may need to have a Yahoo account to read it.

The most amusing line, imho:

"It's not the most comfortable topic for television executives anyway, since acknowledging all of the writers indicates there's something less than real about reality TV."

They always need writers, even when they don't...
