In exclusive statements to the Hollywood Reporter, the Writers Guild of America, East and the LA County Federation of Labor have endorsed the Occupy protests in NY, LA and elsewhere. The WGA East slammed a "system that has diverted capital (to) a tiny handful of people," while the LA County Fed called out "corporate bullies, banks and investment firms."
