DESCRIPTION:Outside The Box: Corporate Media, Globalization, & The UPS Strike.  Book 
 reading and Presentation by author Deepa Kumar, Assistant Professor of 
 Media Studies at Rutgers University\nThe need for a critical analysis of 
 how labor struggles are presented and packaged by the corporate media and 
 how labor can counteract the anti-labor bias is the focus of this book. It 
 looks at the media battle behind the most important successful national 
 strike in recent years by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters 
 against the United Parcel Service. The New York Times complained that the 
 problem of the strike was that the public believed that the strike was 
 about “part time” work.\nSee
