WE HAVE EXCITING NEWS! Today, workers from @TheAthletic sent a letter to Times management calling on them to recognize Athletic editorial workers as members of the Times Guild. We are thrilled to have them in our union.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

Our @NYTGuildTech colleagues have been negotiating with @nytimes management for more than two years. It’s past time for the company to recognize them with a fair contract now! Show your support https://t.co/ssgnYiZ9vD

@AlTobyYahoo @ByPatForde Boring, but beautiful!

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

"Wooo!"

An iPhone survived a 16,000 foot drop. But what was it doing up there?

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

@JennyVrentas Hungry Pig Right is a personal fave.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

@TylerKepner @TheAthletic Congrats!

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

This is nothing against the great work done by the journalists at @TheAthletic. This is about @nytimes and the treatment of the people in the Sports department.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

I call foul on the @nytimes's decision to eliminate the sports desk. I stand with more than 1,000 @NYTimesGuild, @WirecutterUnion + @NYTGuildTech members in demanding that Times management stop violating our contract and respect union work.

[Jenny Vrentas @JennyVrentas]

The @nytimes needs to take a time out on union busting. More than 1,000 @NYTimesGuild, @WirecutterUnion + @NYTGuildTech members delivered this petition yesterday, demanding that Times management stop violating our contract and respect union work.

[Ben Casselman @bencasselman]

I'm a fan of the Athletic and their coverage. But at the @nytimes, sports reporting -- no matter the label -- is union work, and sports jobs are union jobs. I stand with more than 1,000 of my colleagues in demanding that Times management stop its blatant union-busting.

[Jim Luttrell @jimluttrell]

I'm a big fan of The Athletic and tried to work there when @nytimes threatened layoffs in '17. But replacing our Sports desk is union-busting. I stand with more than 1,000 @NYTimesGuild, @WirecutterUnion + @NYTGuildTech members in demanding that management honor our contract.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

Can’t thank @tgoff11 and his staff enough. They took the time to show us around KU Athletics. It was a real treat for our girls, and for this Jayhawk too! Rock Chalk!

[John Branch @JohnBranchNYT]

Lynn Zinser, my great friend and former colleague (at two newspapers, including for many years @NYTSports) wrote this today.
I hope you will read it. https://t.co/BWX9nYWKed

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

I'm proud to be a former member of @NYTSports. The sad news this week about the dissolution of the department got me thinking about all the great work over the years.
My little contribution was this piece with @jimluttrell on the 2015 Mets-Royals WS. https://t.co/PnVsQYNiRb

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

NYT sports journalists, and readers, deserve better.

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

As members of @NYTimesGuild, we are baffled and infuriated by the Times proposal to dissolve our storied and award-winning Sports department. This announcement is a profound betrayal of our colleagues and of Times values.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

Sad day in @NYTSports. My colleagues deserve better.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

There were times I never thought we would get here. But we worked together, all 1,500 Guild members, to show @nytimes management that we deserve better. So hot damn!

[NYTimesGuild @NYTimesGuild]

After nearly 800 days without a contract, ~1,000 @NYTimesGuild members voted more than 99 percent in favor to ratify a new 5-year deal that includes an immediate $65,000 salary floor, raises for every member, hybrid work options, a ban on NDAs and new investments in local news.

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

This will now be the only thing I can think of when I see Jokic play.

[Rustin Dodd @rustindodd]

Nikola Jokic: What if Greg Ostertag was Larry Bird?

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

And @georgegustines on the omnipresence of Stan Lee. https://t.co/NJtFDMMaB4

[Christoph Fuhrmans @CFuhrmans]

One of the great things working at @nytimes is that you get to work with talented people and fun stories. Like @mekadomurphy on essential NYC movies https://t.co/byTL9Z9sbE.
