Looks like the Writers Guild of America East may have swayed Ellen DeGeneres’ decision about taping her show in New York. DeGeneres has scrapped her plans for a New York visit and will instead tape on her home turf, in California. DeGeneres already has some enemies among the striking writers, as she continues to tape her show even when other shows have shut down.

WGA East was not too happy about her plans to tape in New York and said she was not welcome there. WGA East president Michael Winship said of the host’s change of plans, “We’re delighted that Ellen DeGeneres has decided not to come to New York to tape her program.”
