There were some brave protesters who visited the Daily set the other day and in a scene reminiscent of Spartacus, stood as writers who were upset at his choice of continuing to cross the picket lines. Now, granted it's just Carson Daily and not Ellen, but the point was made. And that's where it should have stopped. When the "writers" (and I'm not sure or care how many actually were/are writers, I just applaud them for their gumption) --when the writers, having made their point, were asked by the show's security to please leave, some of them became BELLIGERENT and confrontational. Even to the point of offering to fight one of the guards. This is 'not all right', for a number of reasons. First it betrays the tennents of Ghandi and subsequently Martin Luther King Jr.'s spirit of peaceful protest, and two, I know one of these guards. He has a wife and a baby girl and is my son's Karate teacher. They guys good. Not just at doing his job and protecting himself, but he's a good person. He supports the WGA and what we're doing. He's a member of a union himself. But if you're representing the WGA and you become aggressive and confrontational, you must remember that the person you're addressing your anger toward is not always the best choice. So, in the future, Members and supporters, please, for your own good and for the public face of the cause, DO NOT BECOME ANGRY in the wrong place and at the wrong time. This situation where you were representing the WGA could have become another embarrassing "don't taze me bro" event with you ending up sporting a few, brave, broken bones. Be smart, stay calm, and the same job will be accomplished.rpphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03049064014910758848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2462026865900537983.post-91425858366916373132007-11-29T13:28:00.000-08:002007-11-29T13:28:00.000-08:00But I thought "Queer Eye" has been off the air for...But I thought "Queer Eye" has been off the air for years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2462026865900537983.post-14256572746144570542007-11-29T10:05:00.000-08:002007-11-29T10:05:00.000-08:00Carson who?I'm not just being sarcastic.
