Rachel Axler (pictured above standing next to a giant, inflatable rat), a writer for The Daily Show, has liveblogged the Writers Guild protests for The New York Times Sunday Styles. Who says protesting shouldn’t make you laugh out loud?
A sample:
10 a.m. Let me tell you, if you’ve never participated in a strike, you haven’t lived. And by lived, I mean walked in an ovoid pattern next to a giant, inflatable rat. I hand out brightly colored leaflets to real, engaged New Yorkers, like the tourist from Italy and another tourist, also from Italy. I worry that these people are wasting precious vacation time that could be better spent not understanding bagels or a Broadway show.
Shouldn’t she be…you know, not writing?
