Day to Day:
The Screen Actors' Guild has rejected a work agreement with the video
game industry -- but its sister union, AFTRA, has accepted. I talk
with host Alex Chadwick about the contentious relationships between
both unions and game publishers, and the debate over whether voice
actors are entitled to a share of electronic game profits. What will
SAG's rejection mean for actors? What effect will the dispute have on
next year's crop of games?

UPDATED: Not so fast. The Screen Actors Guild
just issued this surprise announcement:
SAG President Melissa Gilbert and National Executive Director/CEO Greg
Hessinger will convene a special meeting of the national board on
Wednesday, June 29, to consider the tentative Interactive Media
Agreement with video game companies that was rejected this past
Tuesday by SAG’s National Executive Committee.
“When the NEC rejected the tentative contract earlier this week, we
said we’d explore all our remaining options,” said Hessinger.
“Since then, we have received feedback from enough of our membership
to conclude that this matter must be brought before the full board for
its consideration.”
The previous three-year agreement with video game companies expired
this past May 13 after several months of bargaining with the
companies. Over the course of the subsequent weeks, SAG issued a
strike referendum to its affected members, before reaching a tentative
agreement on June 8, which is set to expire next Thursday, June 30.
The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, which
negotiated jointly with SAG, approved the agreement last week and it
will go into effect for their members on July 1, 2005.
