It looks like Alec Baldwin has the perfect way to end the on-going WGA strike: using the Internet.
He actually gets more specific–use the Internet and defame people. From his Huffington Post blog:
In the meantime, the writers, and the other sellers as well, have a different idea they can try. I recall when a popular late night talk show host skewered the head of his own network for a prolonged run, right there on his show. On and on it went and, from what I heard, that network head was apoplectic. These people have bigger egos than even the stars themselves, but without any sense of humor. I want the WGA to set up a website and on that website we can all post stories about every no-talent, idiotic, amoral producer and executive we have ever dealt with. Just like they do to us on shows like Extra and sites like TMZ (owned by Warner Brothers.) Set up a website and tell the entire world, via the internet, your own anecdote about some of the witless boobs you have endured in Hollywood and beyond. The strike will end in a week.
We'd hedge bets and say 9 days, Alec. If only cause we're realists. And do read his blog. It is surprisingly insightful–especially if you read it in a "Jack from 30 Rock" voice.
