Unions are not necessary and in this case I can see where your "walk off the job" scenario could be counter productive. If advertisers think they are open to attack from that paper they will no longer advertise. Then all the union people who walked off the job to support this guy won't have a job because the paper will be forced to shut it's doors. As has been stated: If an employee cost a company revenue, be it a store, dealership or publication the company is JUSTIFIED in canning that person. That paper isn't there to be honest.

You can bet your last dollar that is a paper that's primary readership is pro one party or the other starts attacking the party favored by the readers they are done. Are advertisers going to leave because of the attacks? NO! Circulation will drop and advertisers will stop placing ads.
