On May 29, Popular Democracy (@popdemoc) abruptly announced a massive restructuring, including the lay off of 21 workers, effective mid-July. Twelve laid-off staff belong to our union, including some of Popular Democracy’s most experienced and longtime staff members.
Today we took a collective lunch break along with our siblings @postguild! The Post unilaterally decided to make us return to the office 5 days a week, so we convened for lunch to share how this policy is impacting our members. We are united! ✊
The Daily News Union mourns the passing of Tom Robbins, brilliant journalist, beloved colleague, friend and mentor to many, and ally to this union. He will be missed.
It's official: the ballots have been counted and we have officially been recognized as the Washington Post Tech Guild by the NLRB! In a 171-38 BLOWOUT vote, we voiced loudly that our union is important to us! That's 81%!
We recently held a union election at Hearst Connecticut Media, and we learned minutes ago that… WE WON!!! By an overwhelming vote of 68-17, our members voted to unionize as part of @newsguild. It’s a great day for journalism in CT! 🐳🐳🐳
We've been without a contract, a newsroom, or even an all-staff meeting for 3 years. No raises in at least 5. Our editors never come to the bargaining table — our hedge fund owners only send their lawyers. So last night we went looking for Exec. Ed. Andrew Julien on the UWS.

Today, we say goodbye to two veteran copy editors who were laid off by @Hearst after two months. These employees had 20 and 36 years of experience. #solidarity
NEW: Courts again ordered the Trump admin to restore funding to Congressional grantees like Radio Free Asia. “These journalists cover countries where press freedom is under attack, but this crisis shows threats can come from our own gov, too.” — @gaufre newsguild.org/dc-circuit-cou…
Pretty gross to see how @JamesVGrimaldi speaks so arrogantly to a survivor of sexual abuse by Catholics priests on @democracynow. I hope that one day the survivors get the justice they deserve
It is unacceptable that @propublica continues to deny our members their union rights.
