Hers is my letter to NBC about the strike. I am in full support mode for it! I was wondering--first off, is it effective? Do you think I should mail it or email it?
Dear NBC,
Watching my favorite shows on your website was a huge convenience for me if I didn’t get to catch one on TV, even with the unentertaining ads that cut through the program. Your website in general was very enjoyable and I spent a lot of time on it, particularly The Office site. But now I regret to inform you that I will no longer be accessing your website in support of the WGA writers.
I was shocked to learn that the writers are not compensated for so-called “promotional material” like their amazing webisodes, videos on your website and downloads from iTunes. I can't bear to get onto NBC.com and watch videos knowing that the writers that made my favorite shows possible get nothing from it.
I strongly urge you reconsider this. Without writers, what would we have? Nothing. If this strike continues for as long as it may, your network will perish without a doubt. A network full of news, reality crap and sports is one that I and anyone I know would never tune into. You will lose countless viewers, but perhaps exceptionally more important to you is the loss of money.
Thank you.
