The WGA's treatment of writers in animation is shameful.

The absense of IB makes the WGA a joke.

Those issues have more to do with IB likely not adhering to WGA rules for whatever reason. The fact that the WGA would consider people like Andrew Stanton, Brad Bird, John Lasseter, and Pete Docter to be in a tier lower than writers for live action is ridiculous.

"that the WGA Awards are not in the business of honoring the finest film scripts of the year; they’re in the business of honoring the finest scripts produced by guild members or under guild rules.

That may lessen their value as an Oscar precursor, but it’s not an unreasonable stance for a union to take."

Agree.   LIke a wise friend of mine once said - "what's the fun of having a clubhouse if you don't get to decide who can enter"
"And if thou refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all thy borders with frogs" - Exodus 8:2 KJV
