Tyler Perry Makes History; But Doesn't Want to Pay "Payne" Writers


Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, you are about to make me ban you. On one hand you are making exceptional progress in the world of entertainment by being the first African-American ever to open your own film and television studio this weekend, and on the other you fire the writers from your #1 cable show who got you there in the first place. Excuse me while I have a Madea moment, but Tyler WTF is wrong with you?? Do you know that writers live to be in the WGA, get paid residuals and receive benefits for all their hard work?

Without writers there is no Hollywood. We make it happen. We put the words on paper for you to use to direct, produce, and make your millions of dollars. And Tyler, have you forgotten you ARE a writer, or have you gotten so big-headed that your have forgotten that fact.

I am unimpressed with you at this moment and if you don't make this "write" I will never spend another dime on a Tyler Perry flick again. I already don't watch the House of Payne, so don't give me another reason to not support you. You are turning a lot of people off with this behavior. Wrong is wrong no matter how you slice it.
