The Harvard Graduate Student Union (UAW Local 5118) is on STRIKE! As they fight for a new contract, the Harvard Academic Workers are fighting for their FIRST contract. It's time Harvard comes to a fair deal with ALL its workers who are in this one fight together. @UAWRegion9A

AP is at it again. The News Media Guild learned Monday that AP will offshore eight photo positions after already gutting its U.S. video production team.

These highly experienced editors are key to our visual journalism’s speed and accuracy. This clear union busting is outrageous.

USA Today and McClatchy are rolling out AI slop and it’s killing trust with the American public. Union journalists are fighting back. #NewsNotSlop https://t.co/21YLYvVRu8

THIS is now the craziest story I've ever written for Labor Notes. UFCW Local 8 staff reps are stalking a dissident candidate for office, chasing him across California, in the union's first ever competitive local elections. I wonder what they have to lose? https://t.co/XNQ6pXUuoc

This election week, USA Today Co. journalists are withholding their bylines to protest an AI chatbot that produces false information. The company’s response: show the bot to "only" 1% of subscribers. That’s not enough.

I dove into our union's archives to learn about this remarkable woman who helped lead our first major strike, was elected local president and then international vice president. She was fired for union activity and won her job back. Lessons 85 years later https://t.co/I43aNIQ0b3

I've added my name to this petition. It's disturbing that so many news companies (looking at you @USATODAY) are spitting misinformation onto articles. It needs to stop.

🚨NEW: Journalists at two Ohio newspapers owned by USA TODAY Co. are withholding their bylines from stories featuring an AI bot that shares inaccurate information. The tool violates the company’s standards of requiring a “human in the loop,” raising editorial integrity concerns.

We need news, not slop.

[MN NewsGuild @NewsGuildMN]

Should an AI bot write your news? The unionized employees of the @PioneerPress don't think so.

"Labor law currently...is working for the billionaire and the oligarch class and not for regular workers," said NewsGuild president @gaufre on the @RickSmithShow.

"We have to reform but it's only going to happen if we all stand up together."
