As New York Public Radio prepares to lay off a significant chunk of the staff, we have learned that the organization also hired an outside freelancer to write a brief article covering the layoffs. THREAD

THANK YOU to everyone who has supported us in recent days and said NO to layoffs. Following negotiations with the union, NYPR management agreed to enhanced severance terms and limited buyouts but is not pursuing other alternatives to try to save jobs.

We need your support! Sign and share this petition to tell New York Public Radio to save jobs and pursue alternatives to layoffs.

I am always glad I’m a part of @NYPR_Union but I cannot express how completely grateful I am for union strength this week. Solidarity forever. Join a union.

This is sort of like a public radio fundraising pitch, except it's coming from us, the workers who make public radio and are now facing layoffs.

New York Public Radio execs want to lay off 12% of staff this week. We’re home to WNYC, WQXR, Gothamist, The Green Space your fave podcasts. We’re asking execs to choose a different way. #ListenersNotLayoffs

It's been a hard week at WNYC. If things move forward as planned, ~one in ten of us will lose our jobs next week. If public radio means something to you, please take a look at this petition and consider signing.
