a media Negotiators for the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers are set to resume talks today (Monday) for the first time since the writers' strike began on November 5. News reports suggest that the two sides remain far apart and are not likely to show much flexibility in their positions -- at least not during the first days or perhaps weeks of negotiations. Talks are initially expected to focus on the
thorny issue of residuals for Internet delivery of TV shows and movies. Both the guild and the studios have agreed to
clampblackout on the negotiating sessions and have even decided to meet in a secret location, hoping, apparently, to elude the press.
