ALL COMEDY IS CONSERVATIVE:
Farmworker union underpaid its own organizers, judge rules (Los Angeles Times, 3/28/17)

The United Farm Workers America failed to pay two dozen of its organizers for some of the hours they worked, including overtime and meal periods, for more than four years, Monterey Superior Court Judge Thomas Wills ruled Monday.
