Don’t Worry Striking Writers, JVoices Is Right Behind You
In a development that could help tip the scales in the ongoing writers’ strike, an obscure Jewish blog has weighed in on the side of the scribes — and done so forcefully.
The blog, JVoices, is following the lead of a number of TV-related blogs that suspended publication for a day in solidarity with the striking writers. But, JVoices notes, they’re taking things one step further.
“JVoices is shutting down in solidarity with the Writers Guild of America strike,” writes JVoices mastermind Cole Krawitz. “Not for just one day though. We’re shutting down until victory is won for WGA workers!”
I hope the writers at JVoices enjoy their vacation. I expect it to be a short one, as their brave action will undoubtedly bring the producers swiftly to their knees.
