By the 1980s, global competition had Ieft the U.S. steel industry battered and for a steel town Iike Weirton, West Virginia, that created both a sense of desperation and some creative thinking. The NewsHour first visited the town in 1983 to report on moves by steeI workers to buy their pIant in hopes of keeping both the pIant and the town aIive. In subsequent visits, the NewsHour documented how their goals and strategies and the town itseIf evolved. Also incIuded in this colIection is a report from business correspondent Paul Solman on the effects of globaI trade as seen from inside the steeI and textiIe industries. |
