Fatheaded Progressive Hypocrite, Cenk Uygur, Refuses To Let His Employees Unionize

FB-

The Young Turks, a left-wing and pro-Bernie Sanders YouTube network, is refusing to recognize its employees’ new labor union.

A week after TYT Union was formed to represent production and post-production workers at the popular liberal channel, the group announced that company leadership had refused voluntary recognition of the union. The refusal, which comes after Sanders proposed penalizing companies that refuse to recognize unions, is the latest instance of a left-leaning news outlet resisting unionization among its employees.

When we announced our decision to go union with @IATSE over a week ago, we had hoped @TheYoungTurks would respect our choice and voluntarily recognize our union. We are dismayed to report that they have refused. #TYTlive6,36612:40 PM – Feb 21, 2020Twitter Ads info and privacy2,448 people are talking about this

“This is a disappointing decision from an organization that presents itself as progressive,” the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE), the parent organization of TYT Union, tweeted. “Join us in telling [The Young Turks] to respect their so-called principles and respect their workers!”

  1. Vandajwiggins has been darkening my blog with comments under the nom de plume of ManualTrand. I tracked them to Pakistan. I also found the domain name of the website at the link was set up at namecheap. I contacted them at their “abuse” email and they said they won’t do anything.

  2. Other than full scale rebellion, chaos and economic collapse what do these so called “progressive” journalists want?
    They don’t want capitalism for us but do for themselves.
    They don’t want across the board socialism for all, obviously.
    Is it communism at the barrel of a gun that they crave?
    They all come off as immature and ignorant punk ass schmucks.
    I blame their parents.

    I’d be happy if they’d get off the couch, and do even that much.

  4. Unions are organized crime.
    They’ll get their recognition, eventually.
    And then they’ll destroy whatever business is at hand – regardless of how long it takes them.
    That (destruction) may not be their primary intention (usually it’s extortion) but the parasitic effect will eventually overcome all efforts.

    For one glaring example, look at the US steel industry: in the 70s it was cheaper to ship ore to Africa – work it – AND ship it back – than it was to work it through the Union. Now there is NO domestic steel production (to speak of).
    I think Peter Strauss even made a movie about it.

  5. Stenk is a big C commie. All his minions are small c commies. Big C’s tout the glory of communism to the ignorant little c masses, while living in the party provided homes, wearing the party provided clothes and eating the party provided meals. Big C’s get all the perks while small c’s do the work.
