Trade unionists routinely murdered

It's clear to me that the right-wing, anti-union, hate based, shout radio type, media has desensitized many in the population to the routine murder of trade unionists. Last year, according to the newest release of the ITUC, 101 trade unionists were murdered.

And, unless I missed it, there is zero coverage of this in most of the mainstream media. You can bet if 101 bankers, or 101 CEOs were murdered last year this would be the lead story for a month.

Trent,

Your last comment was inadvertantly deleted. I was removing a couple of "spam" comments and your comment got wiped out too.

Please feel free to re-post that last comment to this article.

That spam is becoming a problem.
