The writers' strike has crippled or threatened other awards shows, but last night the 14th annual Screen Actors Guild bash went on - the first trophy mart of the year to be televised, thanks to a waiver from the writers.

When Myers learned several weeks ago that CBS was about to air the pictures, he persuaded the network to delay the broadcast for two weeks. An earlier telecast might jeopardize the safety of Americans held hostage by Iraqi insurgents, he said, and further inflame anti-U.S. tensions in the country. But amazingly, Myers hadn't actually seen the pictures. When he appeared on television four days after they were broadcast, he admitted he hadn't read Taguba...
