Weinstein Company, WGA About To Announce Deal Allowing Harvey Weinstein To Abuse Guild Writers Again

According to the AP, The Weinstein Company says it’s about to reach the same kind of interim deal with the WGA that United Artists signed back on Monday, with the papers necessary to get back to work with union writers possibly signed by the end of the day. (Let the Official Side Deal PressReleaseWatch begin! Exciting, we know.) Once the contract is finalized, Weinstein can expect a scriptalanche like one that is reportedly burying Tom Cruise; TWC employees will undoubtedly be rejoicing that their boss will have a fresh supply of three-hole-punched projectiles to launch at their heads at the slightest provocation, as they’re probably a little tired of dodging the same stale batch of screenplays he’s had to use since the start of the strike.
