Free Popcorn: U-M students Dean Baker and Liz Gottlieb handed out free popcorn Friday night in front of the State Theater to renew a long-standing protest against owner Kerasotes Theaters. Organizers said they hoped the free popcorn would cut into sales inside the theater. The theater, one of three owned by Kerasotes, has been boycotted since the chain bought it in 1984 and fired union projectionists, replacing them with non-union workers. Last year, Kerasotes sued The Pinkertons, a street theater group that staged protest skits in front of the theater, saying they had cost the chain $10,000 in revenue. That suit was settled out of court earlier this year.
