Bargaining Talks Recess in Strike of Film, TV Writers

From a Times staff writer

Hollywood producers and striking writers recessed their contract talks Saturday night with no definite resumption date, a producers’ spokesman said.

A spokeswoman for the Writers Guild of America could not be reached.

The producers’ spokesman declined to give details on the recess, which follows nearly three weeks of marathon bargaining.

Negotiators for both sides had met at 4 p.m. Saturday and apparently broke off talks about four hours later.
