We have alarming news.

The owner of The Sacramento Bee is trying to tie journalists’ pay to the number of clicks their stories get.

We’re urging the company to reconsider. Here's our letter to McClatchy’s new CEO about how this could hurt our community.

And, mahalo to outgoing publisher Bart Leath. In addition to his day-to-day role at the paper, he has been at the table in contract talks, where we have worked together and frequently found common ground. We wish him the best of luck in the future.

Congratulations to Chris Minford, the new publisher of The Maui News! His personal commitment to the paper (20 years as circulation manager) and decades spent on Maui (34 years) will serve him well in this next role.

“I am so grateful to have The Maui News. The local employees … are successful because they are familiar with the local scene.”

Mahalo to Cynthia Monteleone for helping stop #MauiCounty’s newspaper from outsourcing jobs away from the community!

“This is something that really, I think, affects certainly more than just the workers at the newspaper. It affects the whole community.”

Matt Thayer, a 40-year Maui News employee, discusses the impact of outsourcing away from Maui County.

From award-winning reporter @c_uechi during @KITV4’s coverage of Maui News workers resisting executives’ outsourcing proposal: “That can be a problem if they don’t understand the history, the culture, the context of Maui.”

At a time when information can save lives, we say mahalo to Guild workers, and to ALL who provide vital care, coverage and service. We also send aloha to those whose working lives have been halted, and hope it’s soon possible to resume work safely.
