ATLANTA:


WGA Member Chad Darnell sent us this photo, and emailed a report from the Turner Campus in Atlanta:

In all, we had about 30 supporters join us, made up of Atlanta actors, college students from the Georgia State University Film School, film professors from Emory University, family of WGAw writers and fans of television.

Our little rally made the local news for the evening.

WGA Member Rob Kutner sent us this photo of his dad, Steve Kutner, next to a guy with a beard at the Atlanta rally.
