The end of things...
According to CNBC and remarks from Disney CEO Michael Eisner, the writers strike is over. In Eisner's own words:
And...
We'll see if that's the case, but the entire town has been expecting this to come down the pike this week. Back to normal? Again, we'll see. I have the sinking feeling that writers will be the recipients of even LESS respect after these two months of stagnancy, but, yeah......we'll see.
"It's over," Eisner said. "They made the deal, they shook hands on the deal. It's going on Saturday to the writers in general."
And...
"A deal has been made, and they'll be back to work very soon," Eisner said, adding, "I know a deal's been made. I know it's over."
