Marg Helgenberger Walks WGA Picket Line

Marg Helgenberger showed her support yesterday for the Writer’s Guild of America(WGA) as she walked the picket line for a few hours. The Screen Actor’s Guild, Marg’s hubby Alan Rosenburg is the president, encouraged their members to support the writer’s strike.

Marg said she wasn’t surprised that the strike had been called.

“I had my doubts about things moving forward [after the weekend's negotiation],” Marg said. “Of course I held out hope, especially with all of that last-minute stuff with [former WGA President and ER exec producer] John Wells getting involved. It’s sad it has come to this. Nobody wanted this to happen. Nobody.”

Marg was glad she could lend support to her fellow artists. “It’s sort of fun. I’m glad to be standing alongside these people. If there was ever a time in history to stand up, this is it. This is where you draw the line in the sand.”

Writer’s are striking over profit sharing for new media.
Couple more photos after.
