Me ineptum. Interdum modo elabitur.

I am the host of "Colbertcon" a Stephen Colbert and all things Colbert related podocast over at podomatic. The first show here will WGA strike related. On the 5th of November, the Writers Guild of America struck after the AMPTP, the bargaining arm of the Corporations double crossed the WGA negotiators and walked out. At stake? Residual income from their creative works streamed and downloaded from the internet and from DVD sales. As I walked past Virgin Records in Times Square, I noticed that the HD boxed set of Season 1 of the Original Star Trek was available for $199.98. out of that, the writers will EACH see $0.04 of each box set sold... as for the writers of CSI, 24, Numbers, The Office, they see ZERO for the downloads and streaming. The first interview will address what we, the fans can do to support the writers.



Tune in.
