The endless censoring of labor

Did you know about the Bush administration's rotten treatment of the air traffic controllers whose work is essential to air safety? That controllers were forced to work long, fatiguing shifts with little time to rest? That many quit because of that? Were you aware of the great potential for serious accidents that posed? Did you know that President Obama's appointees to the Federal Aviation Agency - FAA - stepped in to rescind the onerous conditions imposed by Bush's FAA appointees and end the controllers' long struggle for decent treatment? Well, you wouldn't know about those vital developments if you relied solely on mainstream media. To most mainstream outlets, it was just another labor story to be ignored - another labor story to be, in effect, censored.
