The NewsGuild-CWA
@newsguild
We're the largest union of journalists, media workers and activists in North America. We've been holding power to account and defending democracy since 1933.
RELEASE: President of The NewsGuild-CWA, sounds alarm on police violence against reporters during the LA protests. “We demand that every law enforcement agency open investigations into any officer violating the rights of journalists doing their jobs.” Journalism is NOT a crime.
Solidarity with the reporters, editors and photographers of the @NYDNUnion as they rallied for a fair contract and in support of my friend @CnDelarosa's Council resolution demanding that Alden Global Capital negotiate a fair contract now.
We rallied with our friends at @NYDNUnion to call out the obvious: big venture capital firms should not be stripping our local press to make a measly profit.
Ryanne was shot in the head for doing her job as a journalist. When gov targets the press, it’s not just an attack on reporters—it’s a violation of the First Amendment and the public’s right to know. We’re proud to join @ACLU_SoCal & @LAPressClub to demand accountability.
Shout out to @LizShuler, @AFLCIO, and everyone who stood with us and each other at today's It's Better In a Union bus tour stop outside @steelworkers HQ. To join them in supporting strikers in the longest-running strike in the country, visit UnionProgress.com/donate today!
I’m no giraffe but I’m sticking my neck out to say it’s not fair that the C-suite gets raises greater than many employees salaries while Guild members haven’t gotten a raise since bargaining began.
It's been 454 days since we started negotiations with @Society4Science. That's great news for expecting giraffes. Not so much for the @snmediaguild workers waiting on a fair contract. Sign our petition to let CEO @mayaajmera know you stand with us! [Link in comments.]
This week marks 1,000(!) days on strike. It shouldn't take this long to stop the @PittsburghPG mocking labor law and the courts. But as Ed Blazina puts it: "We get through with the kindness of strangers." Can that include you today? UnionProgress.com/donate
Sooo excited for the @snopes_guild
IT'S OFFICIAL: Workers at Snopes.com WON voluntary recognition of their union — @snopes_guild! ✊ Now they’re heading to the table to bargain for what they uphold every day in their reporting: Transparency. Accountability. Fairness. ✅ newsguild.org/workers-at-sno…
Support the @latguild and the @newsguild. The only surefire guarantee of a strong newsroom is a strong contract. Unions are the last line of defense against abuse and exploitation, and that's true in newsrooms, warehouses, hospitals, or any workplace.
“The blood of journalists is quite literally being spilled in our streets. And the companies that employ these journalists are telling them to put a sock in it.” Watch @LAPressClub's @adjoro explain why this is not just a press freedom issue — but a labor issue too.
Congrats to @snopes_guild! 🥳

WE FIXED IT: Obviously our successful rally had an effect on @NYDailyNews management, who felt compelled to “write” an op-ed. Unfortunately it’s full of mischaracterizations and missing key facts. As journalists we couldn’t let that slide, so we got out our red pens…
The rescissions package defunds public media, cutting off support for good jobs, local content, educational programs, emergency alerts, and rural communities’ access to news. Call 202-224-3121 to tell your Senators to vote NO on clawing back public media funds!
YES!!!!!! The work is just beginning!!💡

Extra! Extra! Two of the Pacific Northwest Newspaper Guilds unionized publications (@EverettGuild and @CentraloregonNG) are moving towards a subscriber boycott and are in need of your support. Read all about the campaign, send emails and sign the petition at…
Union power, baby!! Thank you to everyone who came out to support 💪
Last week, a federal judge ruled LAPD must stop shooting projectiles at journalists. We’re still pushing our lawsuit to hold DHS agents accountable as well. This is a coordinated assault on journalism, and it’s not over. nytimes.com/2025/07/11/us/…
