The quote from Zapolsky is especially funny, because it exactly follows the PR strategy outlined in the leak notes the paragraph prior. What an incredibly fake, dishonest person. Not really the best candidate to be calling a union organizer "not smart, not articulate".

I also think it's deliciously ironic that his description of someone as "not smart, not articulate" is in and of itself the way a dumb or inarticulate person would speak :D

Funny thing, people using the word "articulate" are generally misusing it!

They mean eloquent, not "articulate".

articulate: "Expressing oneself easily in clear and effective language"

That meaning is fine. What makes you think Zapolsky is wrong?

As far as I can tell this guy is a freaking PR genius. He managed to turn a leak into another chance to ram home his message.

The entire Vice article is ridiculous. People trying to organise a union smear their employers all the time, it's rather inherent in the task. Employers smearing back is now shocking behaviour? Double standards are rife.
