someone could post an OBJECTIVE overview of the strike. Simply put, an UNBIASED accounting of each side's complaints/demands etc.
without any "those producers are a bunch tightwads" or "the stagehands are greedy bullies."
I agree. They have had clear bullet point lists for each side in some of the NY papers recently. I will see if I can find them and post them. It was there that I finally found out what the strike was about and then formed my opinion on the matter that way.
Margo did this about a week ago

The producers are greedy bastards who would sell their own mother for a pack of gum. The stagehands are lazy louts, overpaid and under worked. IS that objective enough for you?
Joe, that covers everything that's been said on this board in a nutshell. Nicely done.
Discussion over!
Oh -- and tourists are entitled rubes, and the media are incompetent hacks.
neither of those things are anything new calvin.
