WGA, Producers End 2nd Day Of Talks Without Deal

LOS ANGELES (AP) ― Striking movie and television writers failed to reach a deal with producers after meeting into the evening Tuesday on a second day of renewed contract talks.

Both sides agreed to reconvene at 10 a.m. Wednesday, said a person familiar with the contract negotiations who was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity.

Both the writers union and the group representing studios declined to comment on the negotiations and would not reveal their location.

The Writers Guild of America went on strike Nov. 5 over payment for work aired on the Web.

After weeks of writers picketing in front of studios and bitter words traded on both sides, producers and writers had agreed to restart negotiations Monday.
