Hollywood Workers Rally for an End to Writers' Strike

About 500 support and production workers marched down Hollywood Boulevard to urge an end to the strike that has paralyzed the movie and television industry. The "Strike a Deal" march brought together workers who are not on strike themselves but who have been laid off or are losing business as a result of the WGA strike, which appears far from over as it enters its sixth week.

Today's rally and march -- from Grauman's Chinese Theatre to Hollywood and Vine -- was planned in recent weeks by members of an independent, grass-roots coalition of industry workers.
