(70 posts)After living in NH for many years, I have come to realize that the Union Leader (the only unionized newspaper in NH) is as my friend above said. A Newt loving, RW propaganda machine. The editorial that attacks the post office was most likely written by their main editor Drew Cline. He pushes his and the GOP issues like Right To Work and other things. The problem is that no matter how 'red' the Union Leader bleeds, it is the largest paper in NH. It is hard to combat against a newspaper who distributes to 30% of NH.
That does not mean we do not try.
We (my fellow bloggers and union members) work hard to spread our message of solidarity and Truth. We want people to be informed about what they are doing to the USPS as well as many other union related issues. We are also all progressives (not all dems, but progressives. Currently that means he sides with us dems). We are slowly growing our blog and getting our message out there. Above I posted a couple of links on the USPS. Two of the posts were directed at Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan. Those posts were viewed over 30k times combined. That is 30k people who did not know about what he had planned before they read it.
