After two weeks of bargaining, the Writers Guild of America and the Alliance of Motion Picture and TV Producers announced Saturday night that they have agreed to take a two-week break in their negotiations “for scheduling reasons.” They declined further comment. The WGA has said that it is focusing its efforts on improving pay for writers working on basic cable shows and rolling back what it claims have been cuts in payments to the union’s health and pension plans. The two sides said that they have agreed to resume talks on March 4.
