Mediamatters? Seriously? Well, okay. Let me find an equally credible source:

http://www.aei.org/publication/maybe-patriarchal-labor-union...

If you can find factual errors in the source I linked, or errors in interpretation of those facts, I would be keen to hear them.
Oh, I'll accept your link uncritically if you do the same for mine.
Of course I didn't tell you to accept it uncritically.
They quote EPI and Brookings. EPI is 29% funded by unions, so not exactly neutral. The Brookings report concludes that price was one of the factors causing an erosion of market share, and presumably employee wages are a factor in that.
