What? You mean the world doesn't revolve around New York City?

BLASPHEMY!
or is it?

Queenie's Daughter has been busy checking in with her regular internet reading: The Guardian, Firedoglake, WaPo, Crooks and Liars, Needlenose, Drudge, Raw, etc.

And what do you know? The MTA strike doesn't appear to prominently anywhere! QD called Queenie and asked, "Is it me or does this strike story not exist outside New York." Queenie replied that QD should not be suprised. Then Queenie's Daughter asked, "How can this story not have legs? It is like a bell weather for the climate of the country that working class people are willing to risk the little they have to stand up to the greedy corporations." Queenie expressed her agreement but then wisely pointed out that the New York transit strike is not the only story being down played by the press.

"We are at war and even that story doesn't have legs."

Damn Queenie.
