Maybe, Just Maybe... A Deal for SAG

For more than a year now the Screen Actors Guild has been in negotiations with both studio heads and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists to broker a new contract, with disagreements over digital media a major point of conflict. SAG has been holding out and holding strong for so long that it seemed not much progress was being made. But now the ballots have been mailed to 110,000 union members, interim national executive director David White has hope for ratification, while SAG president Alan Rosenberg thinks it won't pass. Are these two looking at things from the opposite side of the mirror -- what does one see that the other doesn't?
