Once an organization is unionized its effectiveness drops dramatically. I support unionizing all news media. (Full disclosure, I haven’t watched a news program since the OJ trial.) If it ain’t in writing, preferably from the UK, Canada or Israel, fluck it.

Those workers deserve to be unionized.

Take that however you want it to mean.
