I am told that the rumor about the Top Screenwriters who were pledging to force the WGA to accept whatever the hell the DGA gets…that report has been exposed as a hoax. Like I said: Do not believe any story of that sort that doesn't have names attached and some confirmation from those names. And even then, it could be bogus or a bluff.
And to clarify: I think Jay Leno ought to do whatever is humanly possible to comply with WGA strike rules. I'm not 100% certain what that is, what he can do to fulfill his contractual responsibility as a performer on The Tonight Show and not be in violation of his union's rules. But whatever it is, that's what he ought to do. It's a little difficult for any of us to say what that is from afar and, as I was trying to explain, the line of demarcation between Jay writing and Jay ad-libbing can get a bit smokey. It's one of those "glad I don't have to figure that one out" problems.
