Celebrities Fill Writers' Picket Line On Strike Day 9
A day ago, the WGA picket lines weren't crowded, the media attention almost nonexistent. On Tuesday, more than 2,000 strikers turned out at Universal Studios, and television news crews were literally tripping over themselves to cover their protest. The difference? Scores of familiar faces delivered by the Screen Actors Guild.
SAG members representing prominent televisions shows and feature films -- Ben Stiller, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Minnie Driver and Zach Braff among them -- transformed the picket lines into a high-profile media circus, bringing both visibility and solidarity to the labor dispute.
