Locked out Crystal Sugar workers were denied access to the company's annual shareholders meeting today as they tried to deliver a petition they say had 100,000 signatures from their supporters. CEO David Berg says the company didn't want a union petition to disrupt shareholder's meetings. Crystal Sugar saw profits fall nearly one third from last year's record high.
