BIG NEWS: The @PittsburghPG has broken federal labor law so viciously for so long that the @NLRB has filed for an injunction that, if granted, would go a long way toward holding the Block family accountable and returning a caliber of news to Pittsburgh this community deserves.
Toledo's been good to us. The Blocks had to scramble to their own board meeting and our union siblings @bladeguild & @4319_speaks welcomed us warmly.
The Blocks can either meet our demands and put 110 people back to work at a total cost of $66k, or our fight only deepens ✊
1/ We, the staff of @reveal, are forming a union!
Unionizing will help us create the best version of Reveal, protect our work and mission, and preserve this organization’s legacy. This is our mission statement. #RevealCIRGuild
We’re going into contract negotiations today hoping to improve working conditions for all of our guild members — the reporters, photographers, copy editors and online producers at The Press Democrat. Follow along for updates on our progress for a fair contract! #UnionStrong
Thank you Bryant from @unitehere Local 5 for taking the megaphone at the informational picketing in support of Maui News union employees! @PacMediaGuild

The journalists of the Fort Worth NewsGuild are on a ULP strike, effective immediately.
Members of the Guild decided to strike with an overwhelming majority of support — 91% of signed members — because of @mcclatchy’s continued refusal to bargain in good faith.
A few of us went up to Butler today to spread the word to neighbors of the Butler Eagle — which is printing the PG despite the strike — that union busting is disgusting!
We're on strike for the health of ourselves, our families, our union siblings and the Pittsburgh community we strive to serve.
Can you chip in to help keep all our family fed and fighting? https://t.co/t8IBkSUzJp
We're inspired by the workers with the @PGHGuild, on strike to take a stand against the illegal actions of their owners.
We'll continue to support them in every way we can.
Join us in signing this petition to demand better treatment for these workers! https://t.co/R2zLu9yl9Y
We’ll keep standing up for fair and transparent negotiations. We hope Maui News executives and lawyers have the decency to show up and talk. In the meantime, please help us by signing this petition in support of workers at @TheMauiNewsHI. https://t.co/jkMU3kUWip
