Those numbers are bullshit. They are not numbers for the writers who write for a television show that is on every week. That is the amount of money averaged for all of the members of the writer's guild. This includes those working and not working. When a writer writes a script for a movie and he gets 250k for it, and he says he spent 5 years writing it (which means he's a useless slug) they say, "He only made 50k per year".
