I hope the Union has access to journalists as does Jstar. It might be worth the effort to have the public on your side.
Unions generally don't have mult-million dollar advertising accounts with media companies, exclusive lounges to luxuriate in prior to departure, nor erroneous "bonus" frequent flyer points for the bosses and underlings. They donate an iPad and a chairman's lounge membership for every member of Federal Parliament. In fact, a unions may well be breaking the law spending their members money in such a cavalier & corrupt manner. Corruption on a commercial basis however, is completely legit, swindling unions members funds to gain influence is a serious issue that would be worth of a multi-part broadsheet investigation and the corruption watchdogs!
The media is a commercial business, press release regurgitators (formally referred to as journalists) are corrupted to the core by payment "in-kind" by the big end of town.
No media would ever print the pilots side of the argument with a shred of sympathy.
So, no the "truth" won't be televised.
