A stop-the-presses moment for @TDSNewsGuild !

[Desert Sun NewsGuild @TDSNewsGuild]

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: THANK YOU! When we fight, WE WIN!!!✊🔥🗞️

[Delaware News Guild @DeNewsGuild]

We stand with our colleagues at the Desert Sun NewsGuild, @Gannett: step up and negotiate a fair contract in good faith!

[Desert Sun NewsGuild @TDSNewsGuild]

It's official: As of 7 a.m. today, @TDSNewsGuild is now on strike!!!

Taking this step is not easy. But after being denied any sort of regular cost of living raises for the last three years, we decided it's time to deny @Gannett our labor until a fair contract is reached!

[Veronica Serrano 🦇 @Verano305]

@Gannett newsrooms are getting ready to strike. Here’s a list newsrooms that could use your support:

[Amanda Hess @amandahess]

We’re asking readers to not engage in any @nytimes platforms tomorrow and stand with us on the digital picket line! Read local news. Listen to public radio. Make something from a cookbook. Break your Wordle streak.

[Delaware News Guild @DeNewsGuild]

This is a terrible day for journalism. Fortunately, our newsroom is safe from this round of layoffs.

Thanks to our contract, we have protections that allow us to continue to fight for local journalism in Delaware.

Unionize your newsroom ✊

Welcome ✊

[Midwest Digital Guild @MidwestDOTGuild]

Hello world, Gannett’s Midwest Digital Optimization Team (DOT) is unionizing! We’re here to fight for the future of journalism, our work and each other.

[Hannah Edelman @h_edelman]

solidarity from delaware✊

[Atlantic DOT Guild 🌊 @a_dotguild]

Gannett claims it is a beacon for diversity in the workplace. Our numbers prove otherwise

We put together this pay study to prove what we knew to be true: No matter what @gannett says about caring about diversity, the numbers don’t bear out

https://t.co/0HLwEgSyiY

[Delaware News Guild @DeNewsGuild]

Because of our contract, and its protections, our members will not be furloughed.

We’ll be able to continue to report on and cover our community.

Unionize your newsroom ✊

[The NewsGuild-CWA @newsguild]

Join Gannett journalists around the country at 7p.m. ET tonight to rally in our fight to save local news. Workers should be paid a living wage, treated equitably and enabled to give our communities the coverage they desperately deserve. https://t.co/PpxgKsIRkQ

[Delaware News Guild @DeNewsGuild]

Happy Labor Day to all, including our colleagues throughout the Gannett Caucus.

This is our first (!) Labor Day with a contract. Fighting for local news has never been more important ✊

[Delaware News Guild @DeNewsGuild]

It’s a great day to unionize. ✊

[Courier Journal Guild 🐝 @CJNewsGuild]

~ some professional news ~

We, the journalists of The Louisville Courier Journal, are ✨unionizing.✨

We love our city and our newsroom and want both to be the best they can be.

That can’t happen unless we have a seat at the table and our voices are fully heard.
