| The ever-increasing number of conservative
radio talk shows, led by Rush Limbaugh, have made it almost impossible for the views of
labor – the real voice of everyday men and women – to be heard. Even worse,
these conservative talk show hosts continually spread misinformation that goes
unchallenged because they control the microphone. |
| Prospering
in America has allowed organized labor to make a dramatic impact
in parts of New York State. This has taken many forms ranging from listeners calling to
ask how to organize their workplace to newspaper reporters listening to the show to gain
ideas for stories and new contacts. Overall,
Prospering In America has helped re-establish labor as a viable
source of opinions and ideas that directly aids working men and women. |
