WORLD SUPPORT FOR THE WRITERS

I've already reported on the rally in London in support of America's WGA in their fight to get their fair share of profits from "new media". Here's an excerpt from the AP report about other rallies held in Europe on Wednesday:

"In Paris, a few dozen screenwriters and others joined a march from the Opera Garnier to the Trocadero Plaza across from the Eiffel Tower in support of their American counterparts.

In Berlin, about 30 scriptwriters and actors gathered in front of the Brandenburg Gate.
"Wir stützen das WGA!"

Demonstrations also were scheduled in several other European cities, as well as in Canada, Australia and New Zealand."
