A 24 hour "strike" is more a protest than a real strike. Good for them. 
 
There are no scabs - only Times employees from other locations.

So the Times has a thousand employees from other areas that are so non-essential that they can disappear for day and no one misses them?

sounds like Twitter pre-Musk   
 
Basically they walked off the job because the management is racist. Doesn't surprise me . The Slimes knew of the Holocaust and suppressed that news .
