Unlike many other sectors of the entertainment industry—such as feature films and scripted TV—there isn’t a national union contract for the producers, APs, and other titles that make nonfiction television. We’re working hard to help bring healthy working standards to all of nonfiction.
@just.chinisha is joined by @sarah_from_maine and @gautam.singhani to chat about Nonfiction organizing in the latest episode of the WGAE’s OnWriting podcast. Hear a brief history of the Guild’s nonfiction organizing efforts above, and listen to the full podcast episode via 🔗 OnWriting.org.
We’re proud to have organized nonfiction shops at @ssynunion , @mcgeemediaunion , @itvworkersunion , @jigsawunion , @liontelevisionunion , @bstvunion , @sharp_union , Vox Entertainment, and Vice.
