We did it! Noisy Union won raises of at least 20 percent and a new wage floor of $70k. Bringing everyone up to $70k means a $15k raise for some of our members!
After just over a year of bargaining, @NoisyUnion employees at The Stranger, the Portland Mercury, EverOut, and Bold Type Tickets have just ratified their first-ever contract! 🧵
For the next few days, we’ll be sharing testimonials from former newsroom staff about why they left @CascadePBS. There are some common themes: low pay, substandard benefits, and lack of protections. #WhyILeftCascadePBS (1/2)
Everett City Council president calls on Everett Herald management to work with @EverettGuild, give journalists a fair wage, and allow "the time and the effort to do in-depth reporting."

Our @PacNWGuild siblings @EverettGuild need our help! As Herald journalists fight for fair wages, management is offering a meager raise attached to an unreasonable daily story quota.
Please tell management these hard-working journalists deserve better ⬇️ https://t.co/prbzbzbHcU

The Everett NewsGuild is resuming bargaining today with our bosses, the first of two scheduled sessions.
We’re hopeful to make progress on our contract today. The company has taken far, far too long with this, but we’re going to take it to the finish line.
We did it! A majority of @adndotcom newsroom staff voted to unionize. The @nlrbgov counted our ballots today via Zoom after receiving a few mail-in ballots.
This makes the ADN the only unionized newsroom in Alaska. Thank you for your support! #ADNunited
Okay who actually are ALL the owners in that Oily Creek or whatever the fuck shell company Brady fronts for? Starting to worry it's like Dave "I Only R*ped Some of My Accusers" Meinert and such
