No Negotiations Watch: AMPTP and SAG to Meet Thursday - Updated (again)

For the first time in more than four months, the AMPTP and SAG are to meet on the subject of the stalled TV-Theatrical contract.  The meeting was arranged by federal mediator Juan Carlos Gonzalez, who has already held two private meetings with each side.

The meeting hasn’t been confirmed by either SAG or the producers, and isn’t described as a negotiations session. The Los Angeles Times calls it a joint meeting with the mediator.  Variety points out that the AMPTP is still saying its last, best and final offer is the one it has already put on the table.  

The Hollywood Reporter gets around to the story
