I am sure the brass section of the Fort Worth Symphony would appreciate your support. A strike vote will be taken very soon in their struggle for better wage&benefits. See the article below.

VERY negative editoral and headline by the Fort Worth newspaper about the situation.

As has been noted elsewhere, that particular paper seems very biased toward management's point of view. They recently published an article that was essentially a one-sided presentation of the situation and history, and now this. They are other more balanced articles around, and of course you can go to the musician's site to get their point of view.
