Just a quick note on this day before the WGA contract expires.
Variety.com, which I recently suggested as a good source of current news on the WGA situation, has created a convenient "Hot Topic" page to track all news about the possible strike.
So see Variety's WGA Strike Hot Topic page for quick updates in the coming days.
