NEWS: Court Smacks MAC Upside the Head

MAC Loss to AMFA in Picketing Case Points to Wider Pattern of MAC's ''Willful Refusal to Perform Its Legal Duties'': Financial News - Yahoo! Finance OK, so the MAC got busted for not allowing AMFA to picket where it wants. Man I'm just not sure which way to jump first. On one hand you've got the Metropolitan Airport Commission, often accused of being a wee bit too favorable to Minneapolis-Saint Paul International bully Northwest Airlines. Just ask anyone who has ever tried to get a favorable gate assignment at MSP. On the other hand you have AMFA who continue to flail away at side issues like where to picket. Just a guess but I am thinking that AMFA members would like to know just how this helps them get back to work. Sigh.
