Over at TPM Greg Sargent is reporting an inspiring story. In Lake County Indiana, call-center workers at Americall were told to read a slime anti-Obama script. Almost 40 of them walked off the job - sacrificing a day's pay - in protest.
Nina Williams, a stay-at-home mom in Lake County, Indiana, tells us that her daughter recently called her from her job at the center, upset that she had been asked to read a script attacking Obama for being "dangerously weak on crime," "coddling criminals," and for voting against "protecting children from danger."
How's that speaking truth to power? These low-paid workers gave up an entire day's pay rather than promote this filth. Sargent confirms the story with another worker at the center. And it's great reporting to.
A second worker at the call center confirmed the episode, saying that "at least 30" workers had walked out after refusing to read the script.
I am so proud of these people. Read the whole article.
