All the news that fits, we print
Good old unbiased NHPR this morning. Reporting on a strike by United Steel Workers against some Louisiana oil refineries. They did give a union spokesman air time. They did not give the issues of the strike, as in how big a raise is the union asking for and how much do its members make right now. Probably they are making pretty good money now, and are asking for a lot more, but revealing that might weaken the union's position with the public. There was a mention of safety issues, by which they might mean overtime, but again NHPR didn't give any numbers. Probably because their staff can't count beyond ten with out taking off their shoes.
