Divided we bargain
Wasn't it just a week ago that SAG and AFTRA were mending fences and preparing to again present a unified front in contract negotiations with producers? Actually, it was. But that all came to an end Saturday as AFTRA -- due in part to a flap over which union would represent THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL -- decided to go their own way, ending a decades-long history of joint bargaining. After the split, the only question was who would sit down with producers first. "It's only right that we're the ones to go to the table first," SAG president Alan Rosenberg offered. AFTRA boss Roberta Reardon agreed ... sort of, saying that her guild "let SAG go first." SAG's ambitious opening proposal, to be delivered April 15, will seek a boost in DVD residuals as well as streaming residuals that kick in the first day a TV show hits the Internet, things the WGA couldn't secure after a 100-day walkout.
