Writers Guild Reveals Studio Deal Details, Says Pandemic Limited Leverage
The Writers Guild of America emailed its members Wednesday, disclosing details of the new three-year TV/theatrical deal reached Tuesday night with the major studios and saying that the coronavirus pandemic and economic circumstances had hindered its campaign to achieve many desired gains for writers. Significant parts of the deal – particularly concerning streaming residuals – mirror the gains achieved by the Directors Guild and SAG-AFTRA, and the WGA negotiating committee also said it fended off damaging rollbacks.

Pandemic’s spread is getting tricky to predict, says govt
NEW DELHI : It is becoming increasingly difficult to make predictions about covid-19 as the number of cases continues to rise across regions, the government and scientists said as India entered Unlock 2.0 on Wednesday.The pandemic curve has been contained to some extent and is beginning to flatten following the 70-day stringent lockdown imposed on 25 March, but policymakers are wary of the subsequent rise in cases.States such as Kerala were successful in bringing down the case count during the lockdown, but the relaxation in restrictions led to a second wave.The situation is such that any prediction of the covid-19 pandemic may be misleading, public health experts said.“The infection was imported and located in urban areas with a

How covid-19 is reversing the ban on single-use plastic across India
Bengaluru/New Delhi: The pressure on hygiene and paranoia over the spread of the coronavirus is slowly leading to a reversal of the central government’s push to phase out single-use plastic.The dependence on disposables, such as plastic cutlery, cups, containers, carry bags, and garbage bags, and greater consumption of packaged drinking water as a safety measure to avoid contracting covid-19, as well as the increasing use of packaging material for online purchases, has dampened efforts to phase out single-use plastic, in line with a call given by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in his Independence Day speech in 2019.“Use of plastic is something that we have allowed in Bengaluru in view of the prevailing situation," said Bruhat Bengaluru

Canada-U.S.-Mexico trade agreement (CUSMA) launched Wednesday, replacing the 26-year-old North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), as the global economy and international trade reel from the fallout of the coronavirus pandemic.The flow of goods among the three CUSMA members — which totaled $1.2 trillion last year — in April dropped to the lowest level in more than a decade. Meanwhile, the jailing of a Mexican labor lawyer and independent union leader has reignited concern about the challenges of meeting the CUSMA’s labor rights provisions.
