We recently held a union election at Hearst Connecticut Media, and we learned minutes ago that…
WE WON!!!
By an overwhelming vote of 68-17, our members voted to unionize as part of @newsguild.
It’s a great day for journalism in CT!

Connecticut's 4th Congressional District — once represented by Rep. Chris Shays — was for decades a bastion of Rockefeller Republicanism.
Its dramatic shift to the left tells a larger story of political realignment in Connecticut over the last 50 years: https://t.co/9C98Vk3BJN
@jajcr0b It was good and funny but I also think its early moments of sincerity turned the show into exactly what weirdo freaks on here want to see in a show by the end: extended scenes of characters looking at the screen and doing therapy talk about why their behavior is bad.
