Outside the Tent Continues

Filed under: Dog Trainer — Patterico @ 9:32 am

  1. Wow. This guy actually blames the LAT for declining union membership. Hmmmmm.

  2. “Why doesn’t The Times regularly cover the exciting efforts of such unions as…”

    Because LAT doesn’t want to cover the same ground as the Socialist Worker, or other overtly “progressive” house organs for left-wing collectivists. LAT needs to maintain some semblance of plausible deniability, you know, in case someone wants to know why subscriptions have tanked.

  3. Out of 800,000 union members in L.A., how many are municipal, state, or federal employees? I would guess it would be a significant percentage of the total. There are a lot more in the entertainment indusrty than you would find in other locales except possibly NYC.
