Strike Action
Strike action, also called labor strike, labour strike, or simply strike, is a work stoppage caused by the mass refusal of employees to work. A strike usually takes place in response to employee grievances. Strikes became common during the Industrial Revolution, when mass labor became important in factories and mines.

Byline
The byline (or by-line in British English) on a newspaper or magazine article gives the name of the writer of the article. Bylines are commonly placed between the headline and the text of the article, although some magazines (notably ''Reader's Digest'') place bylines at the bottom of the page to leave more room for graphical elements around the headline. Dictionary.com defines a byline as "a printed line of text accompanying a news story, article, or the like, giving the author's name". It shows information of the writer. Examples A typical newspaper byline might read: Tom Joyce''New Boston Post Reporter'' A byline can also include a brief article summary that introduces the author by name: Penning a concise description of a long piece has never been as easy as often appears, as ''Staff Writer'' John Smith now explains: Magazine bylines and bylines on opinion pieces often include biographical information on their subjects.
