START
I am not sure what Mr Mazur is trying to accomplish, other than turning the public away even more than they already are, due to sick of all the crazy low-blow drama. Infighting.
What was Mr Mazur's point, anyway, with all the mudslinging?
I wonder if he knows that how badly the SAG Board histrionics are irreparably hurting all actors, everywhere. Shaming them, for his pre-school playground behavior.
[ LJ paragraphs taken out: read at link -had to take out due to 4000 character limit]
"United For Strength"??? United-by-dysfunction, and never-ending, really ridiculous behavior; is more like it. We are all United-By-Embarrassment for your actions, and forced to suffer the indignity. And the poverty, that your actions will surely cause. (I left the business over a decade ago, out of choice..but I just cannot sit back and let you malign us all.)
[LJ the best part is this where we should all have the strength to say-& don't ever be sorry]
I am sorry to have to be so blunt, but shut the hell up...
SHUT----UP .
Your blabbering has truly brought us all down, EVERYONE; people are sick of this everywhere.
No one is even laughing at it anymore.
We, as actors, will never recover any respect, that you destroyed because you are so out-of-control. You are so far from the real world, that you haven't a clue, how you appear. And what harm you have done, to --acting--.
Sincerely
Dana Kaminski
STOP
see some of her wonderful performances:

Yesterday the Screen Actors Guild fired a bald guy that thought stripes were slimming (sorry Doug, they're not). While layoffs are common in this economy this particular lay-off, of SAG executive director Doug Allen, was aimed at getting the producers to come back to the bargaining table.
Doug's approach to negotiating went something like this,
"I want more money than any of the other unions got"
"Ummm, no."
"No, I'm serious, I want the most money ever. More money than Ghandi got."
"Uh, Ghandi was poor."
"No, I mean that rich guy that played Ghandi."
And on and on. No wonder the producers quietly left the table, paid the bill and took a cab home early.
Now the union is trying to woo the producers back by handing over Doug's head on a silver platter. Read my article to see if it will succeed.Yesterday the Screen Actors Guild fired a bald guy that thought stripes were slimming... more
