As always, great reporting from PubliCola.

62% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, homelessness rates continue to rise in Seattle, yet the Times continually choses to eschew reality and side with the conservative minority in the city.

That’s cuz the Times is a union busting rat rag.

Same as it ever was.

Source? I tried searching and nothing relevant turned up.

During the 7 week strike in 2001 the Times fired striking workers and hired scabs “permanently”. Part of the final deal was to rehire union members and let go of the scabs. But they quickly downsized in the following year, this was really the start of them utilizing syndicated reports instead of having a robust journalism team.

But the Times has always been against labor. It’s not a unique ideology amongst our current media landscape but good God is it tiresome.
