PBS nighty news: anti-union, anti-EFCA report on AFL-CIO's Trumpka:
Edited on Tue Oct-27-09 09:30 PM by amborin
please review the video for yourself, it was right-wing, corporate propaganda against
EFCA

the reporter was parroting Chamber of Commerce "concerns" about the 'negative' implications of EFCA, total BS of course....

while Trumka seems good, i also think he might have been a bit better prepared to advocate both for EFCA and for the future of the labor movement, but that's a minor issue

tell PBS how biased they are

here's their comment screen:

1. They tell both sides
of issues. If you can't handle that you shouldn't watch
the Newshour.
I watched the piece about Trumka and thought it was
an informative one about someone that is not that well known
and what he represents.

2. Trumka is well known; the comments about EFCA were anti-union, not balanced
