Television may be about to implode if the Writers’ Strike doesn’t get resolved soon (cheap bastard executives, give the writers what they deserve dammit!), but some people are helping out any way they can. George Clooney donated $25,000 to the Actors Fund to help all the entertainment industry workers who are currently facing hard times because of the lock out. He said:

“To people like myself, the strike is a forced vacation, but with the rhetoric high, and two other strikes looming, there is the fear that a prolonged strike can destroy people who make a living in this industry,” Clooney, 46, said. “My hope is that people who can afford it will take responsibility for this and help out. This felt like the right place, because the Actors Fund is the most inclusive. It helps writers, and everyone from craft services workers to agency assistants who have been laid off.”
