  • The strike was against the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), a trade organization that represents the interests of American film and television producers. Over 12,000 writers were affected by the strike. The strike sought increased funding for the writers in comparison to the profits of the larger studios. Negotiators for the striking writers reached a tentative agreement on February 8, 2008, and the boards of both guilds unanimously approved the deal on February 10, 2008. At the resolution of the strike, the writers achieved a new percentage payment on the distributor’s gross for digital distribution.
