You know how flagrant you gotta be as a company to get slapped with an injunction by the US gov't? The lowest of the low. Unfathomable credit to the striking workers of @newsguild, @CWAUnion and PPPWU for making this happen. Accountability NEVER gets delivered in a vacuum.

A rare bit of good labor news for the newspaper business. #NewsGuild

Teamsters should do better.
“We are doing everything we can to avoid future layoffs” says the CEO who just received a double digit increase in pay. 🙄 A media tale as old as time.

GOP Sen. Rand Paul: We have to talk about cutting Social Security and Medicare

This is not a drill: Alden whacking Illinois jobs
Lifestyles Editor Saleema Syed went on strike because she has lost money with no raises & inflation over her 23 years here @chicagotribune. “I am ready to escalate because... I need to be able to help my daughter through college while also being able to retire.” — @SaleemaNSyed
"Alden, I hope you're listening."
"Alden, I hope you're listening."
Statehouse reporter Jeremy Gorner went on strike for higher wages. “I’m ready to escalate with my colleagues because the company doesn’t seem to get the message.” — @JeremyGorner
Investigative reporter Ray Long went on strike because he hasn’t had a raise “in years & years & years” as Alden squeezes reporters and readers. “We want Alden to know that we will not buckle to their baloney and we’re ready to rock — harder & harder & harder.” — @RayLong
Senior reporter Laura Rodriguez decided to strike because she knows journalists of color deserve to be paid as much as their counterparts here @chicagotribune. “I’m ready to escalate because our company won’t even acknowledge that.” — @LAURA_N_ROD
Environmental reporter Adriana Pérez is ready to escalate because the cost of living is rising and Tribune wages aren’t keeping up. “We just want to stay in the city that we love and that we’re reporting on so that we can do our jobs the best way we can." — @adrianamperezr
Reporter Caroline Kubzansky went on strike because young reporters like her stand to lose tons if our 401k match is cut. She’s ready to escalate because working here @chicagotribune was her dream. “But Alden is my nightmare." — @CKubzansky
Investigative reporter Joe Mahr went on strike because he’s tired of our greedy owners looting the newsroom. “I’m ready to escalate because the staff deserves better and the readers deserve better. We need a fair contract now." — @joemahr

Ethical journalists hold power to account, which includes holding their employer to account. Scabbing is unethical—it’s an active decision to hurt others.
Scabs getting mad as the consequences of being class traitors comes to fruition is priceless. “Journalism” isn’t a valid excuse to work against your colleagues and empower the bosses to treat us worse. These scabs happily take a pay cut in the name of a byline. Pathetic.

Major news! Labor board seeking an injunction against the illegal behavior at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Scoop: The NLRB plans to seek an injunction in federal court against the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette over labor law violations. Petition likely to be filed in coming days. Workers at the newspaper have been on strike for 18 months. huffpost.com/entry/pittsbur…
Anyway, fund one of the only respectable parts of the gov't for more days like this. x.com/TheNLRBU/statu…
We are deeply disappointed in the President’s proposal to increase the NLRB’s FY2025 budget by just $20 million. While we need all the funding we can get, this proposal does not come close to providing us with the resources we need to enforce federal labor law. Here’s why: 🧵
You know how flagrant you gotta be as a company to get slapped with an injunction by the US gov't? The lowest of the low. Unfathomable credit to the striking workers of @newsguild, @CWAUnion and PPPWU for making this happen. Accountability NEVER gets delivered in a vacuum.

Indeed. This characterization invests “climate activists” w/ aura of an angry, small-time, loosely organized rabble instead of a massive, science-backed movement, thus making it easier to dismiss
My colleague Liz just made a good point: why are we always described as "climate activists" but industry spokespeople aren't described as "oil activists" or "fossil fuel activists"?
The two longest serving journalists at @capgaznews, @BWagner_CapGaz with 35 years and myself with 24 years. Still kicking ass and getting the job done. Today we are with Beansy the Bartender at McGarvey’s. He will be the Annapolis St Pat’s Day Parade Grand Marshal.
If you're feeling down about your life or your career today, take heart: At least you're not out there defending lead pipes
Biden wants to replace lead pipes. He failed to mention that the unfunded mandate sets an almost impossible timeline, will cost billions, infringe on the rights of the States and their residents – all for benefits that may be entirely speculative. #sotu ag.ks.gov/media-center/n…

Did you know McClatchy is one of the only major news organizations in the country that offers NO paid parental leave for mothers and fathers alike? This week, our team went back to the bargaining table to demand we get paid parental leave in our first contract. Thread 👇
