Current MSM Attacks On the ACU

There's currently an attempt by the MSM to claim that the ACU sells its influence. [1] A careful examination of the article reveals that what actually happened was that the ACU asked FedEx to cover the (considerable) expenses of a massive grassroots campaign organized by the ACU. Should this be covered in the article, or is it too topical? --Benp 11:15, 17 July 2009 (EDT)

It should be added. I read the article and didn't understand all that is going on. Who wants FEDX to have more Union representatives? FEDX balks and the ACU partners with UPS? Conservatives for Unions? UPS bailout dollars? what a mess.
In addition, I read this story and I believe the ACU group tarnishes the Conservative name. http://blog.mises.org/archives/010305.asp --Jpatt 14:41, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
I do agree that siding with UPS on this issue was pretty poor form on their part. Now, the question is, exactly how do we distill down all the "he said/she said" into a concise encyclopedia entry? --Benp 15:54, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
