Question about the Writer's Guild strike and comparable situations in other industries: why are the studios allowed to negotiate as a single entity, the AMPTP? How does this situation compare to the various US sports leagues and the auto and airline industries?

Carl Icahn's
Time Warner efforts find a powerful ally in
"white-shoe" investment bank
Lazard. Wall Street M&A advisors have been hesitant to support efforts by Icahn and his hedge fund brethren in their share-holder activist efforts for fear of alienating fee-paying corporate clients (investment banking, legal and registration fees on the
Time Warner/AOL deal were approximately $300 million). By
hiring Lazard, which is led by banking legend Bruce Wasserstein (
1,
2,
3), Icahn is surely raising the intensity of his campaign against Time Warner management. Icahn has been successful in previous shareholder activist campaigns, most notably against Blockbuster (
1,
2), and talks a
pretty mean game. Wall Street will be watching this closely - hedge fund activism is becoming a very real fear for company management/directors:
Circuit City/Highfields Capital,
Wendy's/Pershing,
Bally's Fitness/Pardus Capital & Liberation Investment Group,
Axciom/ValueAct Capital,
MSC Software/ValueAct Capital (reg. required),
Beazer Homes/Tontine Capital (second story on page) and
more.
