NBC producers, writers and technicians have said they will “pull the plug” on the network’s annual broadcast of the lighting of the Christmas tree celebration in Rockefeller Center Wednesday night all because of a contract dispute.
The National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians Local 11 says they’re angry at the big wigs from the peacock network for stalling negotiations.
They union argues:
“We can├óΓé¼Γäót let the Grinch at NBC steal another Christmas from thousands of honest working people. This charade must stop. Christmas is supposed to be a time of goodwill, but the network├óΓé¼Γäós management is trying to hide behind their fancy lights while leaving their employees in the dark.├óΓé¼┬¥
We understand that everyone wants their money, but technically wouldn’t the NABET be the ones stealing Christmas since they would keep the rest of the world from viewing the annual event?
Put your differences aside for one night and let others enjoy the holiday season!
