That fucking Nightline woman asked "Should the auto workers have been willing to take a pay cut?"

[Bozita]

Cynthia something.

So there's no bridge loan. Her question implies it's the fault of the UAW.

This was at the very end of tonight's broadcast in a segment she called Closing Arguments.

1. The UAW has been sold as just another group of liberal elites.

So bizarre.

[blue_onyx]

2. They have already cut their pay

The Republicans want to destroy what's left of the unions so they are acting like unions members bring in $100,000 a year. She was just repeating Republican BS.

[Dragonfli]

3. They already have!

Of course something as silly as truth should never sully modern "reporting".


:sarcasm:They take home over $70 dollars an hour haven't you heard?:sarcasm:

4. Here, let it rip

I already did.

8. that was the most depressing thing..

I've ever read. My God. It's bad. It won't be the politicians that bring us down it will be 'we the people'.

[sandnsea]

10. Yep

They want things to get better but they turn against the ones in the same boat as them instead of the ones who are really running away with the loot. They figure nobody deserves to be better off than they are. Same thing happened in the 70s. Somebody has got to stand up for unions and a middle class standard of living, and in a damn hurry.

5. The meme is starting

They are going to place all the blame on the UAW. Fucking Republicans just want to destroy the unions.

6. This is the line of reasoning handed to the media by the

wife of senator Mitch McConnell-the Secretary or Labor...Elaine Chao. EVERYONE needs to say over and over-Mitch McConnell is anti labor (not anti union-anti labor-anti blue collar) because his wife has visciously and repeatedly depleted and cut workers protections.

9. Should the banks be allowed to pay bonuses to their overpaid execs with the bailout money?

Did anyone bother to ask THAT question??

[sandnsea]

11. Should the shareholders

agree to reduced dividends and stock value for the next twenty years, no matter what happens to the profitability of the company. They didn't ask that question either.

[Raschel]

12. I think congress should take a pay cut, pension cut, and healthcare cut.

[wellst0nev0ter]

13. You're Librul Media

Never watched these jackasses in years. All a bunch of goddamn liars and gatekeepers for the corporate class.
