Why Does USA Today Hate Public Workers?

Why Does USA Today Hate Public Workers? 

My God!  Do we really need to ask this question? 

Let's see, on one hand we have this newspaper that is owned lock stock and barrel by the Establishment. 

On the other hand we have a bunch of disgruntled workers demanding better working conditions, higher wages, health coverage and the like. 

Now on another hand we know that many of these workers also buy the newspaper that is owned by the Establishment. 

But on even another hand, the newspaper understands that its very existence depends upon not upsetting the Establishment.  This creates friction.  Friction creates anger.  The newspaper can't afford to get angry at the Establishment, so it turns on the workers. 

But the newspaper has to be clever about this, so it "creates" news that will keep the unruly workers spending their money to buy newspapers. 

The workers buy the newspapers in order to read the lies being printed about them.  That makes them angry and they start writing angry letters to the newspaper.  The newspaper prints the letters.  The workers buy more papers to read their letters that they sent.  The newspaper publishes editorials condemning the workers.  The workers picket the newspaper.  They try to organize the newspaper's nonunion employees.  The newspaper calls out the cops and the governor calls in the National Guard.  This disrupts the production of newspapers. 

And then we ask, "Why Does USA Today Hate Public Workers?"
