Will Smith nervous about daughter dating
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 15 (UPI) -- Striking writers who work for "The Young and the Restless" say reports they plan to cross Writers Guild of America picket lines and resume writing are untrue.
Media reports said several soap opera writers had filed for financial core status or planned to do so and head back to work.
"As the writing staff of 'The Young and The Restless' gathered to share pizza together -- something we have vowed to do weekly until the strike ends -- we were incensed to read the incorrect information printed in Variety that several writers on our show sought financial core status," said a statement from the soap's writers, according to Broadcast and Cable.
"Our entire writing staff of 18 is united and we fully support our union. Not a single person who was writing for 'Y&R' when we struck has gone core. Not one. We stand united with sore feet from picketing. Well, some of us sit. But we all do our part, and we cannot be parted."
The WGA has been on strike since Nov. 5.
