3. Sounds like he supports labor more than corporate |
|
But not too much, I just tuned in right before the commercial. Anyone do a google on the guy?

4. Is this union busting? |
|
Is this like someone crossing a picket line? I would be seriously pissed if a show with a liberal audience is going against the writer's union. I haven't been following this.

5. I'm not sure on TDS and Colbert deal on the strike |
|
My opinion is that this is OK with them on how TDS is doing it right now.

9. I don't think so, so far it's all been Pro-Union talk... |
|
...with a strong, "Hey Producers! Stop being such pricks..." attitude.

10. Both Jon and Stephen are brilliant! Jon on crosstalk and Stephen @ the dinner |
|
They didn't get to sit in those seats just on the writers but couldn't carry the show alone without them.
I think they both support the strike....Now Stephen on.

11. they crossed the line |
|
Stewart and Colbert don't own their shows like Letterman does and have no power to negotiate with the union.

13. Worth the wait....this will go far on the internet |
|
to give the writers the support they deserve.
By giving that internet site a boast on the writers strike it opened up many people to their viewpoint.
I think Jon did a good job... and then the interview next.
If Malloy had been on, I wouldn't have watched it.....LOL
Oh, well, guilty pleasure, after an absence.
I need a Professor's guild.
