I'm quite an Ellen fan, and I was shocked at all the sheer nastiness that has been directed at her because she has continued to tape her show.  Thankfully, I see I am not the only one---just came across this bit of news on IMDB:

The American Federation of Television and Radio Artists strongly condemned the Writers Guild of America East's attack on Ellen DeGeneres for continuing to tape her daytime talk show during the strike. In a letter to WGAE Executive Director Mona Managan, her AFTRA counterpart, Kim Roberts Hedgpeth, wrote that DeGeneres is bound by a no-strike clause in her contract requiring her to report to work. "If WGAE had concerns about the activities of this AFTRA member, we cannot fathom why we did not receive so much as a courtesy heads-up to discuss the situation and see what we could do to work together in support of WGA's members," Hedgpeth continued, describing the situation as a "stunning breach of basic inter-union courtesy" and a "misstep that threatens to frustrate the solidarity of organized labor on a cause that we should all stand together, and stand up, for."
