Directors Make A Deal with AMPTP

The Directors Guild of America and the AMPTP have reached a tentative three-year deal with major advances in jurisdiction and payment for programming on the Internet.  Gil Cates, chair of the DGA’s Negotiations Committee is calling the deal "groundbreaking and substantial" and claims that “The gains in this contract for directors and their teams are extraordinary – and there are no rollbacks of any kind.” 

Hopefully, this will signal the beginning of the end of the writers strike.  For a more complete overview of the details visit the DGA site or read this article from Variety.
