On this edition of Your Call, we’re discussing media coverage of worker uprisings across the country.
More Perfect Union launched in October 2020 with a mission to center working people in media coverage. They say the powerful spend billions selling us their side of the story. We aren’t buying it anymore. In just two years, they’ve managed to break stories about workers unionizing and demanding dignity and better working conditions. How does the public respond when workers are at the center of the story?
