When journalists write about unions, like this:

>The plan would save money while busting unions, a win-win, he promised investors. Instead, McNerney’s plan burned some $50 billion in excess of its budget and went three and a half years behind schedule.

They have a moral obligation to disclose their conflicts of interest in being unionized themselves.

The staff at The American Prospect are all part of a News Guild, with their employer mandated into exclusive collective bargaining with their bargaining unit:

They thereby benefit from laws that enshrine union control at the expense of contract liberty.
