1.) "More coke now"
Pros: gets the executives where it hurts. Makes them understand that writers want the same things out of life as producers.
Cons: may implicate writers in illicit activities.
2.) "Royalties, not loyalties"
Pros: rhymes. Also, establishes writers' sense of independence as a segment of the industry.
Cons: kind of stupid. And it rhymes, which is pretty lame.
3.) "Current royalties worse than Snakes on a Plane"
Pros: helps the execs understand the writers' position. I mean, Snakes on a Plane is a pretty universal identifier for terrible.
Cons: may anger Samuel L. Jackson.
(You do NOT want to see me angry!)
4.) "Burn, Hollywood, burn!"
Pros: strong visual language. Helps convey the proletarian anger of writers.
Cons: may hurt public credibility. Fire is a sensitive issue in southern California at the moment (or so I hear).
5.) "Save us from John Leguizamo"
Pros: asserts the fundamental dignity of the writers. How could anyone wish Leguizamo's company on them?
Cons: can't see any. Executives would be monsters to ignore this plea.

(When it comes to fair contracts, Tina Fey is one mean girl. Hey oh!)
