Military.com News Guild

We are still hoping to hear from @Monster and that they will do the right thing and voluntarily recognize our union.

Two weeks ago, we sent our CEO Michael Reinstein this letter asking him to come to the table to negotiate directly with us. We received no response, so are releasing it publicly. We renew our call for direct negotiations with our CEO to produce a fair and equitable contract. 1/2

Concerning news:

Military .com, the industry-leading & award-winning newsroom on military & veteran news is set to be sold to Valnet. A company with a history of exploiting writers, cutting pay, gutting staff and with no background in national journalism. thewrap.com/valnet-labor-l…

Today we filed the latest unfair labor practice charge against @Sightlinemedia protesting the full-time in-office mandate they just dropped. Please retweet this and tell @mortgreenberg, @kellyfacer15 and Regent to rescind this order and bargain with @SightlineUnion in good faith.

🚨We're on strike at the New York Times. Workers at the @NYTGuildTech who power all NYT technology begin ULP strike, threatening to be the first NewsGuild work stoppage to coincide with a presidential election day in 60 years. newsguild.org/press-release-…

We are thrilled to unionize with @WBNG32035--Military.com is among the most influential outlets in military coverage, producing a constant barrage of award-winning accountability reporting service members, veterans & their families are entitled to. wbng.org/2024/10/23/mil…

🗳️ ELECTION WIN: Journalists at Military.com voted unanimously 10-0 to unionize as @MilNewsGuild in a balloting that was tallied last Thursday! Now, they will need our support as they prepare to bargain with the company for the first time. wbng.org/2024/10/23/mil…

Votes have been certified. The union has unanimous backing of all eligible @Militarydotcom staff! We look forward to working with the newly merged @CareerBuilder and @Monster on a fair contract for our award-winning team.

Today the Sightline Media Union begins our first round of negotiations with our employer. We are eager and ready to work out a fair and equitable contract for our dedicated journalists, so we can continue telling the stories that matter to service members and their families.

Good luck!

Good morning and welcome to DAY 3 of our ULP strike! We’re back outside 230 Park Ave. demonstrating to @Law360 and @LexisNexis our dedication to winning a fair contract! ✊ #UnionStrong

Labor Day is about celebrating American workers & unions. Every worker should be treated with dignity & properly compensated. @Monster's wages have not kept up with inflation, employees have seen effective cuts to pay despite greater demands. We look forward to a fair contract.

I and the other members of @SightlineUnion stand with our friends and colleagues at @MilNewsGuild. We have no doubt you'll win your election, and wish you well getting the fair and equitable treatment you deserve.

.@Monster has unfortunately declined to voluntarily recognize our union. In a message to staff, the company says it values the ability to work directly with its employees - of which it has not given raises or salary cost of living adjustments to - despite being constantly asked.
