Trade Roughage 2/6/08



  • Vanity Fair has canceled their annual post-Oscars party, as a show of solidarity for the striking writers, and also presumably because there may not be a “real” Oscars to throw a party after.
  • That said: the WGA is planning a “bicoastal powwow” for Saturday in order to present a tentative contract plan to their members, and if all goes well, says Dave McNary, “the boards could quickly start the ratification process — and possibly issue a back-to-work order that could take effect as early as Monday.”
  • Welcome to the seventh circle of hell: an awards show honoring publicists, hosted by Billy Bush. It would almost be irresponsible to craft a joke around the following: “‘This is an event by publicists, for publicists, honoring publicists yet nobody knows about it because it’s not publicized,’ host Billy Bush joked in his opening remarks at the luncheon, to the delight of the flack-filled room.”
