Writers and Producers Continue Talks


Signaling that writers and producers may be making substantial progress toward an agreement that would avert a strike in May, negotiators for both sides met on Saturday, one day following the writers' original two-week deadline. A union spokesperson said after Saturday's session that the talks would resume again on Monday and continue on a "day-to-day" basis.
