Seattle Mayor Attacks Hearst in Strike Showdown
August 26 Seattle. A drawn out strike at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer enters its fourth day after two employees were fired.

Dore calls the walkout a battle of all wage earners and targets publisher William Randolph Hearst. He warns Hearst may attempt to run the city, claiming the newsroom conflict is the key issue. He vows to resist Hearst’s influence and intensify pressure on the protesting staff.
