Ellen DeGeneres crosses picket line
That’s right folks, Ellen DeGeneres thinks the fall sweeps is more important than supporting the writers in their strike when she crossed the picket line. While other actors and actresses have joined the writers outside picketing that’s not the case with Ellen. Ellen give the following reason to the audience about why she’s crossing the picketing line:
It’s sweeps. Which is a very important time in television because that’s when you do your best shows, your funniest material. You pull it out and do everything you can because you want everybody watching. And now we’re in the middle of a strike – a writer’s strike. This is a strange show for me to do … it’s a weird show.
I want to say I love my writers. I love them. In honor of them today, I’m not going to do a monologue. I support them and hope that they get everything they’re asking for. And I hope it works out soon. In the meantime, people have traveled across the country. They’ve made plans. They’re here. I want to do everything I can to make your trip enjoyable and give you a show.
Ellen loves her writers so she didn’t do a monologue? What BS, she probably didn’t do it because there wasn’t a writer to write the monologue. What Ellen really love is money, money, and more money. Maybe, Ellen just doesn’t like these writers, because she even canceled a show due to the whole Iggy situation.
