Nine recently gave a boss accused of misconduct a $1 million payout. It’s putting up Scotty Cam in a five star hotel for the Paris Olympics. But this very profitable company refuses to offer its journalists fair pay. That’s why we’re striking. MEAA #DontTorchJournalism

Editorial workers at Nine Publishing mastheads will be on strike from 11am AEST tomorrow. We want a pay rise in line with CPI, a commitment to workplace diversity, safeguards around AI and a fair deal for freelancers. #MEAAmedia #DontTorchJournalism

All strength to my journalism colleagues as they go on strike. As a former Age reporter, and a paying subscriber, I know who is creating the value the company profits from.

Cannot be overstated how much journalists hate striking at any time, but especially during a global event that is a totemic career goal for many. That this strike is happening only shows the depths of the justified fury at Nine. #DontTorchJournalism #Solidarity

70-90 redundancies from Nine’s publishing arm and refusing to pay The Sydney Morning Herald The Age Financial Review journos a fair wage to keep the company’s profit margins up. I’m no economist, but I could find the bosses a few alternatives while we’re on strike MEAA

This is one of the best reflections of what a metropolitan newsroom is actually like every day of the week that I have ever seen and should be kept in mind after this strike is over. #DontTorchJournalism

Tony Armstrong, Paul Kelly, Dave Hughes and Jane Harper are among the dozens of high-profile Australians standing with journalists from the newsrooms of The Age, Sydney Morning Herald, Australian Financial Review, Brisbane Times and WAToday, demanding quality jobs for quality

We’re back at it today, striking for fair pay and to save journalism jobs while the Nine execs enjoy five star trips to Paris MEAA #DontTorchJournalism

I'm on strike until Wednesday along with my Age, SMH and AFR workmates, as we seek better conditions, pay and job security but the shorts are forever hard at work. #donttorchjournalism

Labor ministers withdraw from AFR summit over journalist strike. Nine is cutting 70-90 jobs from our newsrooms and refuses to give us a pay rise in line with inflation but is spending big on exec bonuses and trips to Paris. #DontTorchJournalism MEAA theguardian.com/media/article/…
