Would be first open-ended strike at an Alden Global Capital newsroom ⬇️

Today, 400+ supporters showed out in solidarity w/ New York Times Tech Guild workers to demand a fair contract after over two years of bargaining! Management’s stalling threatens a potential strike on Election Day—a crucial day for coverage—as these tech workers run NYT’s digital ecosystem.

"We want to see a presence of local media be something that’s long-term and not something that’s just going to get ... sold when it’s no longer valuable to a hedge fund." -Charlie Vargas SCNGguild may have its first contract after years of bargaining: objectivejournalism.org/2024/10/socal-…

We’re on strike at the New York Times. No playing Wordle, the crossword or any of the games. Stand with New York Times Tech Guild in demanding a fair first contract! washingtonpost.com/style/media/20…

No contract, no needle. Proud to stand with New York Times Tech Guild on Election Day and every day.

So proud of my colleagues who fought hard for more than two years for a strong contract that includes better worker protections. ✊🏽 #WeHaveAContract !!!

LET'S GO!!! Proud to be associated w/ this courageous group filled w/ inspiring leaders and members who persevered💯! Thanks for the support!🙏

We did it!!

I'm so proud of all of my colleagues who worked tirelessly for years to achieve this. It isn't perfect, but being able to lift our veteran journalists making under 50k to that salary base along with the new(er) reporters starting their careers, is a victory worth celebrating!

My colleagues & I worked 3 years to unionize and reach a contract w/the Southern California News Group, which owns the Orange County Register, where I'm based, LA Daily News, and 9 more newspapers. Today we signed our 1st contract. To quote Martha Stewart, 'It's a good thing.'

A good family man and SCNGguild rep lost his home in the Eaton Fire, here’s how we can help 🙏 gofund.me/d85afc9c
