Insider Union ✊

Getting better every day.

[Insider Union ✊ @InsiderUnion]

🚨WE WON! 🥳‼️

We have a tentative agreement on a contract that will give our members more money and job protections and resolve our ULP.

Our strike is over - we’re going back to work tomorrow!🎉

On January 9, ICE arrested a member of our union, the Minnesota Newspaper & Communications Guild, as part of Operation Metro Surge.

He has been transferred to a detention facility in Texas, where he is awaiting action on his petition for habeas corpus: https://t.co/IvM2R5c0Qi

A message from CWA President Claude Cummings Jr.

Today we honor, as a union and as a nation, Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr., one of the greatest civil rights leaders in our shared history.

We stand with you @nynurses! One union's fight is every union's fight!

🧵Every day our members rely on access to police radio transmissions to respond quickly to shootings, fires, buildings collapses, natural disasters and other major emergencies so that they can quickly report on and share vital safety information to the public….

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

The “Keep Police Radio Public Act” would allow journalists to maintain real-time access to radio transmissions in the state. As of Wednesday, @GovKathyHochul has not signed the act and time is running out....

[NewsGuild of New York @nyguild]

@GovKathyHochul With the possibility of the police ultimately controlling the messaging and speed of transmissions, it clearly presents a disservice to the public. We strongly urge @GovKathyHochul to sign this bill to protect New Yorkers and support a free press.

2/ Stand with our members and tell media bosses you want news, not slop! #NewsNotSlop

Word of the year: SLOP! @MerriamWebster

"Like slime, sludge, and muck, slop has the wet sound of something you don't want to touch. Slop oozes into everything."

We could not agree more. Keep AI slop out of our news! #NewsNotSlop

Hear from our members and those across @newsguild who are sounding the alarm about artificial intelligence -- and how you can join our fight. #NewsNotSlop

[Insider Union ✊ @InsiderUnion]

Huge thank you to our guest speakers and to everyone who turned out for our rally today outside @BusinessInsider and our virtual rally. One thing is for certain: We won’t stop fighting to protect the integrity of our work. #NewsNotSlop!

[William 'Bill' Baker @Billbaker830]

....then headed downtown to stand with my peeps @InsiderUnion to let management know that we will stand by and let ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE take away jobs!

Union work can be tedious and grueling, but sometimes you win big and get cake! Celebrated with our members this afternoon while watching @InsiderUnion 's rally for #newsnotslop

This, after @BusinessInsider laid off 25 % of staff in May. We stand in solidarity with @InsiderUnion. Readers deserve #newsnotslop
