Scott took part in the Star Trek day picketing with WGA members at Paramount Studios.

Startrek.com has a short video interview with him up at their site here:

First, GO SCOTT!! Good to see him out supporting the writers.

I think I heard a little about this strike coming a while ago. What brought it on?

AFAIK, the studios are making money from various new media such as Internet downloads, and the writers are getting a tiny share of it. They want a fair share.
 
Its all good that the Writer's want a fair share, and i'm glad that Scott is showing his support but it is annoying that some of my vaourite shows like Heroes and Prison Break (not to mention Journeyman - *sniff*) are going off air for a few months because no scripts have been written.
