This past Thursday, we (along with the Shopfloor blog), shed some light on a startlingly pro-union Google ad being placed by the union-controlled National Labor Relations Board that stated:

“Find Info on How to Start a Union

Get the Process & More on Our Site!“

A day later, on Friday, the National Labor Relations Board posted what appears to be its first-ever “Fact Check” that stated the following:

Fact Check

This feature encourages accuracy in the media by correcting common misperceptions and errors of fact when they are brought to our attention.

Google Ads It has been reported that the NLRB spent Agency funds on Google ads. An initial review indicates that the ads were provided at no charge beginning in 2008 by Google. The Agency has decided to discontinue them.

Now that the NLRB has taken it upon itself to correct the record by stating the ads were free from Google, it would be remiss if an acknowledgement that the previous assumptions were wrong.

Trying to avoid a Constitutional crisis in Wisconsin. What’s going on is much more than what you think. It’s no more just about “the budget”.

MUST LISTEN to this attorney working with Scott Walker:

You've just set off my pet peeve alarm. To turn 180 degrees is to reverse direction. To do a 360 is to do a full circle and end up going in the same direction as originally traveling.

Good. Maybe one of Google’s worker will take the hint or the workers at AFL-CIO will try organizing again.
