Seems the ones politicizing the issue are the rube local reporters in Huntsville who don't know how to fact check or understand you need more than one source to verify a claim.
truly the really disappointing thing thats come to light here isnt union vs non.... its that one hack can put out a faulty, poorly sourced claim out there, and many others will report it without questions... and if they do question, its often AFTER putting out a tweet about the rumors they are hearing.
there are some good journalists for sure, but a lot of bad ones these days. frustrating.
