Hearst thinks ahead

During nasty bargaining at the San Francisco Chronicle with the Northern California Media Workers Guild in June, the Hearst Corporation went out and bought a bunch of potential strikers' Web domains. Read the story in the East Bay Express here.

They even bought Fuckthechronicle.com. I'll bet they could get their money back selling it on eBay.

(And FYI to any Seattle P-I and Times managers out shopping for next year: www.unionrecord.com? Still ours, baby.)
