Union Strikes at Newspaper: Newspaper Guild members went on strike at the New York Post, saying Rupert Murdoch’s efforts to save the paper threatened their jobs. The newspaper is being operated by Murdoch, whose News Corp. expects to complete a $25-million purchase of the Post by the end of September. The union opposed a plan by Murdoch to allow a four-month period during which he can fire any employee without regard to seniority.
