The three-month old Hollywood writers strike could end as soon as next week, just in time to avoid disrupting the Oscars on February 24th. Sources say the WGA bargaining committee and studio executives are still haggling over the precise language in the contract. Neither parties were authorized to comment on the specifics of the negotiations, but the agreement is said to include significant increases in the residuals received for online use of film and television.
