We won! We are excited to announce we voted by more than a 2-1 margin to win formal recognition of our union with @wgaeast! Together, we have made history. This victory is the first of its kind in cable news and we are so proud of what we’ve all accomplished together.
Amy Hooker and Andrew Joyce, WGAE members from the @MSNBCunion, joined @TheDailyShow writer/producer Zhubin Parang to chat about an election where “unprecedented” events happen daily, & memes like Brat summer are part of the regular reporting cycle.

“We are dismayed that @ThirteenWNET, a station that prides itself as public service for the community, is seeking to decimate its unionized workforce by demanding the authority to assign our work to non-union employees of its affiliated stations." https://t.co/s4B27KowvN
Today, @splcenter - an organization with nearly a billion dollars in reserves, given an F rating by CharityWatch for “hoarding” donations - gutted its staff by a quarter.
Surely any company that has $200K to blow on Ted Cruz’s Super PAC has enough money to give the @iheartpodunion a fair contract with real wage increases.
CONGRATS to the @MSNBCunion on the overwhelming ratification of their first contract! After more than two years of negotiations, this hard-fought victory follows the support of thousands of members & union allies. Collective action works ✊
