LOS ANGELES The smaller of Hollywood's two performers unions said on Tuesday that its members have ratified a new prime-time TV contract, undermining a last-ditch bid by the larger, more militant Screen Actors Guild to secure a richer deal.
The labour pact covering 70,000 members of the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists won final approval despite an all-out campaign by SAG urging some 40,000 actors who belong to both unions to vote down the AFTRA accord.
