Published 4:28 pm Friday, September 5, 2008

The Machinists just posted a message saying the strike is on.

We posted a brief story. Check back for updates.

UPDATE

Boeing and the union called off talks despite having at least 8 hours remaining before the extended contract would expire.

The union’s Tom Wroblewski said Boeing failed to meet the members’ demands.

Machinists will strike at 12:01 a.m. Saturday.
