According to Variety , Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Bill Richardson and John Edwards said that they will not cross picket lines for a CBS-sponsored debate in Los Angeles on Dec. 10 if writers strike. So far, Edwards is the only candidate to join the strike lines, and recently announced he was canceling an appearance on ABC's "The View" because of the strike. "In addition, we will also honor any picket lines at CBS News, up to and including the CBS presidential debate on December 10th. As I said when I walked the WGA picket line in California last Friday, these workers are making a simple request for their fair share of the huge profits being made by multinational media corporations."
