The Onion is more credible than Fox, that's for damn sure!

"That's it - demonize something that does not conform to your point of view."

You mean like the way you demonize unions?

Just because someone says something against a union does not demonize them.

Are you actually saying there is no downside & everything they do is above board? Give me a break.

Some poor schmo making $ 35 K a year in NYC should pay higher taxes so a union member, no longer working for the city, should have their medical insurance fully paid for for life. Should people who ride the LIRR pay higher fares because retirees are scamming the system? Should some poor slob , trying to get to work, lose his job because the TWU breaks the law & strikes?

We have differing views. Pure & simple.

"Just because someone says something against a union does not demonize them."

And someone saying the Onion, is more credible than Fox...doesn't demonize Fox either.


You can't have it both ways Roxy...which is it? If saying anything negative about Fox is demonizing them, then saying something negative about unions is demonizing them too...right?

Your double standard is showing.
