The suit, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles Superior Court, is the latest in a long line of developments that highlight the massive rift between SAG's elected officials, led by president William Daniels, and senior staff, led by former national associate executive director John McGuire. SAG supporters believe the battles are lessening SAG's clout as it heads into crucial film-TV contract negotiations. Most people in Hollywood are braced for strikes, and Nguyen doubted Wednesday that minority SAG members will give full support to a strike this summer. He noted there are no minorities among the 30 top SAG executives. Nguyen, who was fired for allegedly representing himself as a SAG attorney, claimed SAG execs refused to take racial discrimination complaints seriously.
