Im in DC on a “labor reporter vacation” and after popular request from many folks in the labor movement, we’ve decided to throw a happy hour at Marx Cafe in Mt Pleasant tonite.
We will be raising money to cover the growing strike threat at General Motors.
Come on, come all, come party at Marx Cafe tonite.
A protege of Bill Greider, Mike Elk is an Emmy-nominated labor reporter who covered Lula & the drug war in Brasil and spent years covering union organizing in the South for The Guardian. In 2016, he used his NLRB settlement from being fired illegally for union organizing at Politico to start the crowd-funded Payday Report. The son of retired United Electrical Workers (UE) Director of Organization Gene Elk, he was once described as an "abrasive gadfly" by the New York Times for his role in exposing sexual misconduct in the labor movement. He lives in his hometown of Pittsburgh. Email: [email protected]
