SAG members polled on contract offer


September 17, 2008 With SAG and the AMPTP deadlocked on a new TV/theatrical contract, the actors union said Wednesday that 87% of its members who responded to its recent poll believe that leaders should continue negotiations and not accept the studios' final offer. However, fewer than 10% of paid-up SAG members participated in the mail-in poll sent Aug. 28 as part of a 14-page update on the current contract negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers. SAG's contract with the AMPTP expired June 30, the same day the studios made a final offer, which the union rejected.
