HADL'S HANDIWORK

Commentary

ROBERT HADL, whose Washington D.C. bar card is currently inactive, argued for the Writers Guild in Superior Court in downtrown L.A.on January 17 during a hearing on class certification in the curiouser and curiouser class action lawsuit WILLIAM RICHERT VS. WRITERS GUILD OF AMERICA WEST.

Hadl on the record.

And the Honorable Carl J. West unaware that here is the individual who runs the foreign levies enterprise.

Who is paid by actors, writers and directors to be their voice around the globe.

But they, like Judge West, are unaware of who Mr. Hadl is.

That is necessary because Mr. Had has been engaging in activities, for some eighteen years now, aimed at the destruction of the right set forth in Article 27 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

What do we pay him to do? Or, more accurately, what don’t we know?

Below are some highlights from an example of Hadl’s handiwork.

Commentary

Hadl likes to crow to Plaintiff’s Counsel how he gets these rights societies to do something that they are not supposed to be doing, which is entering into reciprocal agreements that provide no actual reciprocity to the rights society itself.

As Hadl was quoted in the New York Times "This is a great program. They send us money, and we send nothing back."(9, 19, 2005)

Reciprocity is at the core of the Berne Convention.

Hadl’s expertise is in convincing others that there is truth where there is none.

Commentary

Here you see Hadl’s style. He begins with deceit, then builds upon it with deceit.

Commentary

Members of the Writers Guild must assign the copyrights they create.

The Writers Guilds West and East are labor unions, one registered in the state of California, the other in New York state, subject to their respective state laws and the federal laws of the United states of America.

Here you see the advantage for the WGA and DGA in being members of CISAC, memberships which have never been disclosed to any of us, and not even to the federal government in the recently expanded LM2s.

And CISAC? What about CISAC? Conned or culpable. I will leave that unaswered for now. Of course any of you who have just realized that by dent of membership in the WGA and DGA you are yourselves members of CISAC could confront them.

And, yes, the lawyers at both WGAs, west and east, are aware of this agreement. You will come to understand they have contempt for us.

Commentary

And that is how the WGA accesses monies collected for John Grisham, Tom Clancy, Margaret Mitchell, Edward Albee and others, monies the WGA has wire transferred to the entities that licensed the film rights to their novels and plays.

Commentary

Does anyone know how I can get a copy of the WGA Articles of Association and domestic rules? And they have got to be in English, right, Tony?

 

Commentary

IT IS HERE THAT THE INVENTED HISTORY OF SO-CALLED FOREIGN LEVIES REVEALS THE CONSPIRACY THAT HAS BEEN AT PLAY FOR EIGHTEEN YEARS.

THESE ARE NOT THE AMPTP COMPANIES THAT ARE SIGNATORY TO THE FOREIGN LEVY AGREEMENT.

THE MEMBER COMPANIES OF THE MPA ARE THE FOLLOWING:

BUENA VISTA INTERNATIONAL, INC.
COLUMBIA TRI STAR FILM DISTRIBUTORS INTERNATIOINAL
METRO-GOLDWYN-MAYER STUDIOS, INC.
TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
UNIVERSAL INTERNATIONAL FILM, INC
WARNER BROS. INTERNATIONAL THEATRICAL DISTRIBUTION

THESE ARE CORPORATE CITIZENS OF FOREIGN COUNTRIES. WE ARE NOW A LONG LONG WAY FROM THE BERNE CONVENTION..

AND THEN WE STUMBLE UPON THIS –

Commentary

WAIT! Let’s read that again.

Commentary

AND WHAT ARE THESE ORGANIZATIONS? AND HOW DID THEY COME TO BE INVOLVED IN A LABOR DISPUTE WITH SAG, THE WGA, AND THE DGA.

BUT, then, there was no labor`dispute'.

Let’s look at the following page from the brochure for COMPACT COLLECTIONS.

Yes, you’ve never heard of Compact Collections but after you read the highlighted sentence you will never forget Compact Collections.

We pay Hadl to negotiate with Compact`that`same’`collective`bargainng agreement’ Leheny and`Schecter invoke in federal and`state court.

Remember, only an association of` writers, of actors, of composers can access these monies.

That’s how the companies got the`monies. With the WGA, DGA SAG and`AFTRA fronting for them.

And that, my friends, is how London’s Compact Collections services its clients.

MissBeckinsale’s neighboring rights have been traded by her unionSAG.

And while the WGA accessed the monies collected for the writers of AMERICAN IDOL, AFTRA scored the monies collected for the contestants.
