A loyal reader notes this story

Democrat John Edwards voiced his support Tuesday for striking television writers, telling a boisterous rally that he would work to protect the rights of union members if elected president next year.

“Stay strong, stay together,” Edwards implored members of the Writers Guild of America, whose strike has entered its fourth week. “It’s about making sure these big corporations, these big media conglomerates don’t step on your rights — that you have a real opportunity to share in the work that you’ve been producing.”
