Dispatches from the Picket Lines: Tourists Turn into L.A. Protesters; Shawn Ryan, Jon Huertas and Sandra Bernhard talk strike

It's day 11 of the SAG-AFTRA strike and day 84 of the WGA strike.

On a Monday that saw Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez join the picket lines outside Warner Bros. Discovery in New York, a mother and son became striking protesters on Monday as actors and writers picketed outside Paramount in Los Angeles.

The pair — Carol, in town from Vermont to visit her son Graham, who attends USC — arrived at the Melrose Avenue lot to take the studio tour. But when they arrived, they saw the signs of SAG-AFTRA and the Writers Guild, two unions on strike against the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers over new film and television contracts.

As the tour was about to begin, the guides asked the two to enter, but they refused to cross the picket line - and instead grabbed signs.

Their story was hailed by WGA organizers when picketing ended at noon.

Other picketers seen at Paramount today included Jack Black.
