FOX News and Qantas

Fox news now reporting "Qantas to resume flights after a strike grounded it's fleet"

Could any of you fox news fans explain to me how's that is "fair and balanced" reporting...

All of these news outlets are using the word strike. Did you know the unions have been engaged in rolling strikes for weeks. The court order ended the rolling strikes and the lockout.

The Qantas CEO is a certified A Hole but fox is far from the only ones using strike.

The first 3 are all the same article but all 3 news outlets picked it up.

Glad to see there is an airline management team that actually has a set of balls.

Are you a f^cking pilot?

Patiently waiting for pilots to politically act in their own self interest...


All hail Murdoch though right, dittoheads?

You might want to read the account of what management allegedly has done before coming up with such an inane perspective. I know full well these issues are never as black and white as either side ever makes them out to be, but it seems like a pretty safe bet management is lining their pockets at the expense of the employees and the traveling public.
If it wasn't for unions, whatever you have made in this industry would have been substantially less. I don't care what path you were on, no ALPA and we all would have been working for a lot less.

Yes, if more management teams acted like Joyce, Lorenzo, et al. the piloting profession would be sure to benefit.

Hmm. I wonder if... Had they succeeded in what you say they were trying to do I would have been better off. I wouldn't have become a professional pilot. However, I don't see much of a difference between what they "tried" to do and what's happened.
