🚨@rocnewsguild journalists are on strike! Here's how you can support:
This is really too on the nose: @Gannett’s job postings for scabs to replace us fail to provide compensation range, a direct violation of state labor law. They can’t even *not* employ people right. CC @NYSDOLCommish
Don't be a scab!
Our colleagues in Austin deserve a living wage. Gannett should give them a fair contract NOW!

Now the owners of the Southern California News Group need to step up and offer a liveable wage.
WE ARE RATIFIED!!! This week, our unit voted overwhelmingly to ratify the first contract in The Desert Sun's nearly 100-year history. That contract, which will include an average immediate raise of 16.5% for all members, will now go into effect soon. Unions and strikes work!
Strikes 👏 work 👏 Following their strike, @TDSNewsGuild members reached a first contract guaranteeing life-changing raises, annual raises for every member, and crucial workplace protections ✊ newsguild.org/desert-sun-set…
Quick reminder that our rally that had been planned for today has been canceled due to the resolution of our contract fight! 😀Thank you to everyone who planned to attend and support us (as well as those who attended our many past rallies). We could not have done this without…
WE WON!!!! After 3 years of bargaining, walkouts, rallies and two strikes. @TDSNewsGuild has its first contract with @MyDesert @Gannett!! Thank u to our fearless bargaining team and all our supporters. You gave us the fiscal ability & gumption to get this done 💥👊🍾#UnionStrong
One of our members is set to get a ~50% raise. Unions work.

I absolutely love the community I work in and the people I get to meet doing this job. But I can’t keep losing money while I do it. We’ve been without a contract for three years. That is WAY too long. We’re on a ULP strike until the company comes to its senses.

Couldn't be prouder of our union siblings at the Desert Sun NewsGuild, who bravely went out on strike Friday and won a deal from Gannett after seeing the company dragged out negotiations for years. Strikes WORK. ✊✊✊
BREAKING: The Desert Sun NewsGuild has reached an agreement for its first contract!!! We’re thrilled to have a deal with immediate, life-changing raises for many of our members, annual raises for every member, and crucial workplace protections. More details to come, but first:…
A big win for a local newsroom: The Desert Sun NewsGuild started their open-ended strike on March 1st, after 3 years of stalled negotiations w/ Gannett, the largest US newspaper chain. In just a little over 24 hours, they reached a tentative agreement on their first contract.
Here is a thread with some of the highlights of our new @TDSNewsGuild contract, which sets the highest pay floor in @Gannett: 1. The contract ensures that @TDSNewsGuild staffers will earn a total of $456,000 more in compensation over the next three years. 2. Guild members will…

@janetwilson66 @TDSNewsGuild @MyDesert @Gannett Congratulations!!! 🎊🎈🍾🎉
So happy for The Desert Sun NewsGuild!! After going on strike, they secured a $54k floor and more. This, after Gannett has refused to budge for 3 years. It’s true: When we fight, we win.
@Gannett 3. Annual raises for all during the life of our three-year contract that allow our members to keep up with the area’s rising cost of living — a huge departure from Gannett’s previous proposals that had no raises until the fifth year of working at the company. 4. A wage scale for…
