Toledo Blade Gets Ready For Strike


Left: Carpenters boarding up the Blade Building

By: Toledo Tales contributing editor Feckless Freddie

(Toledo, OH) Threats of a strike by union workers at the Toledo Blade led the management of the parent company to get the Blade building ready for a strike.

"We've moved most of the staff out of the building, and we're starting to board up the place now," said Allan Block, president of Block Communications. "Those strikers are in for a surprise if they want to start some trouble."

Block said that the primary goal in case of a strike is simple.

"We want to starve the fuckers out and break the unions," he said. "It's a pretty easy strategy to figure out. If we have to we will bing in some goons and bust a few skulls. Don't think we won't do it, either."

A representative for Mailers Union Local 1135 declined comment, except to say that "wood burns."
