Some labor advocates say the blogosphere deserves entry into organized labor, as e-writers increasingly face the same workforce issues as freelance writers in the print world.
Jonathan Tasini, executive director of the Labor Research Association and a former president of the National Writers Union, said on Monday that bloggers “could in fact” join the writers union.” (hattip Beltway Blogroll)
National Journal’s chief blog advocate/correspondent, Danny Glover, has the full story over at Beltway Blogroll.
I’d love to hear the British media establishment’s reaction if British bloggers ever made such a move? I suspect it would be somewhat less charitable!
I am no fan of labor unions, but it does demonstrate how much more mature the American blogosphere is compared to its British brethren.
