Obsolete Since 1980
Read more . . . →The Labor Department just repealed protections for migrant farmworkers that have existed since 1980. Forty-six years of requiring OSHA and the Wage and Hour Division to actually coordinate on enforcing the rights of the people who pick your food. Gone. The official reason: the rules are “obsolete” and don’t reflect “modern, effective, and flexible coordination models.” Which is a beautiful way to say nobody’s watching anymore.

The banner says “Both Sides” and the arm wrestle is the most honest thing on screen, because at least it looks like effort. They work for the same network and they’re probably splitting a cab home after this. The anchor on the left gets assigned a position. The anchor on the right gets assigned the other one.
