  • February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
    February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES.

  • Media Ownership Chart
    In 1983, 50 corporations controlled the vast majority of all news media in the U.S. At the time, Ben Bagdikian was called "alarmist" for pointing this out in his book, The Media Monopoly . In his 4th edition, published in 1992, he wrote "in the U.S., fewer than two dozen of these extraordinary creatures own and operate 90% of the mass media" -- controlling almost all of America's newspapers, magazines, TV and radio stations, books, records, movies, videos, wire services and photo agencies. He predicted then that eventually this number would fall to about half a dozen companies. This was greeted with skepticism at the time. When the 6th edition of The Media Monopoly was published in 2000, the number had fallen to six. Since then, there have been more mergers and the scope has expanded to include new media like the Internet market. More than 1 in 4 Internet users in the U.S. now log in with AOL Time-Warner, the world's largest media corporation. In 2004, Bagdikian's revised and expanded book, The New Media Monopoly , shows that only 5 huge corporations -- Time Warner, Disney, Murdoch's News Corporation, Bertelsmann of Germany, and Viacom (formerly CBS) -- now control most of the media industry in the U.S. General Electric's NBC is a close sixth.

  • Formative Educational Experiences of Leaders As Factors Influencing Innovation in Organizations
    FORMATIVE EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCES OF LEADERS AS FACTORS INFLUENCING INNOVATION IN ORGANIZATIONS by Thomas A. Bloomer B.A., University of Illinois, 1972 M.A., Wheaton College Graduate School, 1987 A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Educational Studies at Trinity International University Deerfield, Illinois December 1999 Copyright 1999 by Thomas A. Bloomer All rights reserved Accepted: ______________________________ Dissertation Director ______________________________ Second Reader ______________________________ Ex Officio iii ABSTRACT The inquiry explored the emergence of experientially-qualified leaders; if they are not qualified for their responsibilities by formal education or certification, how then were they prepared for leadership? Since business, politics and the Church are becoming less concerned with formal qualifications and more and more with results, the research problem has implications for preparing the leaders needed for the future. A descriptive study was done through a qualitative content analysis of ethnographic interviews of thirty-five experientially-qualified leaders. These leaders form the main leadership group of a young, multicultural, entrepreneurial, fast-growing mission, which represents in some ways the types of businesses and non-profit organizations which have come into being in recent decades. Domain, taxonomic, and componential analysis revealed themes of leadership development enhancers, more formalized leadership training structures, nonformal leadership release strategies, positive tendencies favoring leadership emergence in the organization, traditionalizing trends hindering leadership development, and rationales for relative ease or difficulty of leadership emergence. The findings of the inquiry confirmed a central tenet of leadership theory, that is, that leaders are formed in situations that demand leadership.

This case involves Viacom’s abuse of its market power over access to commercially critical networks – its highly popular Nickelodeon, Comedy Central, BET, and MTV networks – to force Cablevision to license and distribute over scarce bandwidth some dozen other Viacom networks, which Viacom calls Suite Networks, that many Cablevision subscribers do not watch and for which Cablevision would prefer to substitute competing networks. Viacom strong-armed Cablevision into carrying Suite Networks by threatening to impose a near $ billion penalty if Cablevision licensed only the Viacom networks Cablevision wanted, networks Viacom calls its Core Networks. Stated differently, unless Cablevision agreed to distribute Viacom’s Suite, Cablevision would pay nearly as much for just the Core (which includes commercially critical networks) than for the Core and Suite 1 Case 1:13-cv-01278-LTS Document 9 Filed 03/07/13 Page 2 of 60 combined. Viacom’s diabolical and coercive scheme, which harms competition, consumers, and Cablevision, constitutes tying and block booking in violation of the Sherman Act and New York law.
