Libtards LOVE unions ... especially the brown-nosing, groveling, libtard toadies of the FAKE NEWS media who fall all over themselves to lick the dirty, crusty boots of union bosses and their thugs. BUT ... apparently, the FAKE NEWS libtards aren't so thrilled with having unions in their own shop. Imagine THAT?!
The very liberal LA Times seems to be crushing their own new union

Something really strange is going on at the Los Angeles Times and it has nothing to do with the local, national or international stories their reporters are covering. Recently, the staff at the paper voted to unionize, joining the NewsGuild. Given the liberal zeitgeist in both the editorial offices and newsrooms of most large papers, including the Times, you might think this would have been a popular decision (a subject we'll circle back to in a bit). But instead, as reported in the Washington Post this week, the owners of the LA Times and a number of other newspapers began making some curious moves which have been described as building a separate, non-union newsroom composed of an army of scabs.
After decades of successful resistance by management and years of demoralizing cutbacks, the Times's journalists voted overwhelmingly last week to unionize. Before bargaining can begin, however, reporters are concerned about a plan by the Times's management to reorganize the way the paper produces news.
Under a new "pyramid" structure proposed this month, a network of nonstaff contributors would produce the bulk of the information the Times publishes online. Reporters say the paper has quietly begun hiring a cadre of editors to supervise the reorganization, which would effectively create a new company within the company ...
But as I alluded to above, we should find it interesting that these developments at the LA Times are playing out in such a fashion. The Times, as with the majority of bigger newspapers, is heavily and unapologetically liberal in their leanings, both on the editorial board and in the newsroom. This means they generally support the Democrats. Similarly, the Democrats are big fans of the unions who fund most liberal political campaigns in a massive fashion. Hence, the newspapers tend to be big fans of the unions and publish pro-union propaganda on a regular basis.
That is ... until the union comes knocking on the newspaper's door. Once they established a toehold at the Times, the company quickly moved to quarantine the union infection and establish a firewall between unionized workers and the ruling establishment. If you don't smell at least a hint of hypocrisy in this story you need to get your nose checked.
Libtards (i.e., Democrats) are pathetic HYPOCRITES.
