Grammys: No Pickets

The WGA Board has voted unanimously not to picket the Grammys, which will be taking place February 10th in Los Angeles. From the L.A. Times article:

As it stands, the decision not to picket is a large one, and likely will ease the minds of plenty of musicians who were debating whether or not to attend the ceremony. Thus far, only the Foo Fighters and Beyonce have been announced to perform, and many artists were likely waiting to commit until hearing a WGA decision on the picketing issue.

As a strike captain and one of the founders of UH, I support this decision. Many music artists have been steadfast supporters of the strike and our cause, and I'm glad we'll be honoring their achievements. -- LK
