This is not a news article, at all -- it is a press release.

If one could not have guessed, it is issued by the Unite union representing the subject workers. Nothing wrong with that but calling it a news article usually conveys some sort of expected objectivity -- a press release from one of the parties to the dispute, does not.

What I find ironic is that the Pritzkers have been and still are big supporters of Obama and yet, one of his core union contituencies happens to be at war with one of his biggest money supporters.

Yet in this instance, I guess the depth of one's support truly does depend on whose ox is being gored.
