Please sign a petition for a fair contract for the journalists at the South Florida Sun Sentinel. Our owner, controlled by hedge fund Alden Global Capital, stopped giving us retirement benefits and continues to shrink our staff.

A year ago, we announced the formation of the Sun Sentinel Guild.
Since we received a unanimous vote to unionize, we’ve been fighting for better pay and better conditions for our journalists.
We look forward to representing the Sun Sentinel’s journalists for years to come!
Our Sun Sentinel newsroom once had a staff of 350 people. We now have fewer than 50. Most of us have gone 14 years without a raise or cost of living increase. Today we started bargaining for a fair wage for all.
.@aglorios and I just went by @MyFLFamilies to get more information on DeSantis’ Hope Florida Foundation.
It’s a nonprofit. The IRS says nonprofits must produce 990s and Form 1023s immediately upon in-person requests.
When we asked for those records, a spokesperson came out. We explained to him what we were seeking and gave him a printoff of an IRS Q&A explaining the process and that we were not here to make a records request under F.S. 119.
An hour later, a man came out, handed the printoff to us, and said “There is a process to this, and your request will be returned in the order it was received.”
He would not identify himself.

You may recall that Rep. Amesty at one point sued the newspaper, claiming the stories that led to these charges unfairly maligned her.
She dropped that lawsuit.
This is pure piracy at the University of Florida from @BenSasse: a $1m golden parachute after he doled out over-inflated salaries to Republican allies —who didn’t even live in state— & threw a fat contract to his old consulting company @McKinsey
