Over the Next Year, We'd Like to Hear More from Our Members
Submitted by Jason Pramas on Wed, 12/31/2008 - 6:15pmAs 2008 draws to a close, I just wanted to say that it's great to see Communicate or Die going strong. Part of the reason is that Steve and I post here regularly, and a growing group of members do too. However, there are lots of folks we haven't heard from yet, and we'd really like to in the weeks and months to come.

Does Your Union Have a War Room?
Submitted by Jason Pramas on Thu, 12/18/2008 - 6:05pmWhat does your union do when it's involved in a media-worthy event? Does it use its own public relations staff to get the union's perspective in the media's eye - and though them, the public eye? Does it hire a labor-friendly public relations company to do press work? And what about taking advantage of new social media technologies of the type we've engaged in an extended examination of here at Communicate or Die? Does your union make use of online social networks to get word out directly to large numbers of people in target markets? Does it have staff dedicated to this new and growing aspect of public relations work?

Teamsters Employ Ustream.tv to Broadcast Hearing About Injustices at Federal Express
Submitted by Steve Dondley on Tue, 12/16/2008 - 4:30pmLast year, I wrote about ustream.tv, a service that allows you to broadcast webcast yourself live on the Internet for free. It appears unions are latching on to the technology. In just a couple of hours, the Teamsters International union will be placing a live feed for a hearing about the problems workers at Federal Express are facing. Watch it here, today, December 16, at 6pm EST.
Update: The hearing is over.
