Go Upright And Vital And Speak The Rude Truth In All Ways
by Christopher Cooper

David Letterman, Jay Leno, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and Conan O’Brien may have to button their lips come Monday – due to the proposed strike of the Writers Guild of America.
If the issues of money that divide the two sides – the writers on one side, producers on the other – do not get resolved by then, all talk shows will have to go into reruns or be taken off the air temporarily (as will any programming that requires newly-written material, such as sitcoms, dramas and made-for-TV movies).
In terms of the nighttime hosts, even though all of them are comedians (and known to be funny off the cuff), they’re also all writers of their shows – and therefore must join the strike.
