Q&A (video): WGA President Patric Verrone
Now that professional writers are done protesting the web, will they flock to it? In this quick video interview, Patric Verrone, president of the Writers Guild of America West, tells us which parts of the new WGA contract the Guild is happy about, what new web ventures are coming down the pike (and whether they’ll stick around), and makes a case for the continuing value of writers.
Video taken at the Harvard Business School Entertainment and Media Conference on Wednesday.
