The union representing thousands of Hollywood writers has ratified a contract with major production studios, putting an official end to a months-long labor dispute that brought much of the entertainment industry to a halt.
In a statement posted to the union's website Monday, leaders from the Writers Guild of America said 99% of its members voted in favor of approving the new contract.
