Why is there no labor section?

Op Ed News has a list of five arguments you can start this summer at a picnic. They were posted this morning, and one of them has to do with the business section:

5. Economics: Crack open a cold one and pose this query: Why isn’t there a labor section to counter the business section in every major newspaper? As your picnic mates stare at you in shock, catch them with details of corporate welfare, wage disparity between men and women, the gap between rich and poor, and the inner workings of NAFTA, the WTO, IMF, and World Bank. Bonus points for: The American people own public airwaves and public lands…but do not control any of it.

Read the other four argument starters here.
