I can't believe that a union ...

...would intentionally sabotage work product. But Secret Squirrel got this late this afternoon:

Noticed the technical foul-ups at Fox 2 recently? Satellite feeds where audio and video don't match? Screen going black for seconds at a time? Seems this is being done on purpose. Engineers and technicians in master control/sat feeds were the IBEW bargaining unit that overwhelmingly rejected cuts and givebacks from Local TV LLC. Six senior engineers took buy-outs. Remaining staff now engaged in campaign of industrial sabotage. They promise some fun leading to the All Star game.
