NPR totally missed the mark. This superficial-level journalism is more suited to USA Today.
Just because reporting isn't in line with union rhetoric doesn't mean it's incorrect or superficial. There are politics to be played on both sides of this game, don't believe

It's our responsibility as stewards of this profession to think critically and evaluate each situation from
all viewpoints, ideally without emotional investment. Only then can we form a rational and informed opinion.
