Dorsey & Whitney - An International business law firm, applying a business perspective to clients' needs in Missoula, Montana and beyond.

Gov. Brian Schweitzer scrapped the Montana Film and Television Advisory Council on Friday, nearly a month after a group of TV and film workers asked him to replace the panel with a smaller number of members that better represent them.

The 29-member council was appointed by the governor last summer to attract the film industry back to Montana.
