The non-elite employees of the NY Times are having their pensions and medical coverage pulled out from under them by Pinch, while the Editorial page columnist FatCats continue their Champagne and Caviar lifestyles. This is no way to share the wealth. These employees should stage a walk-out.

In journalism, your most valuable employee is the one you fired last week.

Hypocrisy Personified:

On the editorial pages, the NY Times is now endlessly banging the drum for income redistribution.

At the same time that the elite Times management is gorging themselves, the little people at the Times are being royally screwed.

Hilarious!
I wish that paper would hurry up and die.
It has done enough damage to my country, thank you.

It is my hope that someone out there... is planning to do a massive viral marketing effort against the NYT and select media. MSNBC will hurt themselves over time. But, the LA Times and NYT are hemorrhaging. Sell your Mutual fund or tell your financial Advisor to sell any portion of your portfolio where the NYT is part of your investment. NYT is now at junk bond status. We need to get as many cancellations across America as we can while they are hurting. Then let’s go after the LA Times. Then quit watching CBS, NBC and ABC.... it will make a difference!!!!

they can just turn over their retirement benefits to Social Security, haven’t they been following the House hearings?

Baghdad Jim McDermott and George Miller are willing to take your retirement money or 401K and toss it into the black hole which is Social Security. Then you can get it back when you are 72 and they promise you a whopping 3% return on your money (considering deflation of the dollar, you’ve just lost 7% by doing that).

How did the buggy-whip manufacturers, telegraphers, and type setter's retirements packages add up? They'll move on and make television unbearable, as it is now.... crater that and then move on to the internet. Neat to see business Darwinism in action.

Can't wait to see the rabble go crazy in the auto industry. The unions are just helping the downsizing along. It's pathetic to watch them fool themselves by blaming "the rich guys".
