UPDATE: Union Blasts Bravo Over Cutting Striking ‘Shahs Of Sunset’ Editors!
September 26, 2014 3:04pm
UPDATE, 3:04PM: Bravo may have today taken over control of Shahs of Sunset but the Motion Picture Editors Guild isn’t going to let them pink slip the post-production crew on the once Ryan Seacrest Productions run show without a fight – be it on the picket line or the courts. “The right to organize, including the right to strike, is enshrined in federal law,”” said IATSE Local 700 organizer Rob Callahan this afternoon. “It is an egregious violation of the law for any employer to discharge or otherwise retaliate against employees for exercising their right to organize. The Editors Guild and IATSE will aggressively defend the rights of our membership against all such violations.” The Editors Guild will have some serious defending to do, sources confirm that Bravo will definitely be taking the show non-union going forward.

Boos to Bravo!
