But the spat ended on Wednesday when the union announced that it had negotiated an agreement with AFI to represent the Maryland theater workers. The agreement provided “significant wage, benefit and condition improvements,” according to a statement from the guild, which touted how Loeb had “put pressure on the company by informing the public of the dispute.”

I went to the AFI in Silver Spring, MD for the first time this week. You have to be happy that there is a theater like this in the DC metro area (the Landmark Theaters are great also). However, I was troubled to learn about this labor dispute shortly thereafter. I’m glad that the union has negotiated an agreement.
