“I’ve been around 25 years and have never seen all the unions this united or on the same page,” one showrunner who was in attendance toldafter hearing leaders from each of the guilds speak. “They are all getting variously screwed by these companies and they know the only way to win is to stick together.

WGA negotiating committee co-chair Chris Keyser was the central speaker of the night.
