US writers carefully navigate WGA strike at Monte-Carlo TV Festival

WGA members attended the glitzy event but ceded the spotlight to cast and non-guild colleagues.
The 62nd Monte-Carlo Television Festival wrapped in Monaco on June 20 having found creative ways to manoeuvre around the limits placed on visiting US talent by the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike.
The festival managed to wrangle international stars and US studio execs to the event and sidestepped any controversy relating to project promotion. WGA members are prohibited from making promotional appearances during the strike but can hold press conferences in their capacity as directors or producers.
