“They reminded us that we can get fired, sued, arrested for talking to the press,” the source said.
“Then they went through the article point-by-point and said that the allegation that we pay people to protest isn’t true.”
“‘That’s the story that we’re sticking to,’” Westin said, according to the source.
The source said staffers at the meeting contested Westin’s denial:
“It was pretty funny. Jonathan told staff they don’t pay for protesters, but the people in the meeting who work there objected and said,
‘Wait, you pay us to go to the protests every day?’
Then Jonathan said ‘No, but that’s your job,’
and staffers were like, ‘Yeah, our job is to protest,’
and Westin said,
‘No your job is to fight for economic and social justice.
We just send you to protest.’
“Staff said, ‘Yes, you pay us to carry signs.’
Then Jonathan says, ‘That’s your job.’ It went on like that back and forth for a while.”
