We are excited for this historic institution to survive! A lot is still unsettled and we will continue to support our members who are fighting to be paid back from the Block’s illegal behavior. That liability does not go away with the sale of the paper.

We had our first bargaining session on Zoom on June 1, with the support of dozens of unionized Hearst Newspapers colleagues from @AlbanyGuild, @AustinNewsGuild, @DallasNewsGuild and @SFCGuild Chronicle Guild. Here's (some of) what the bargaining committee said:

In the meantime, some of the journalists who Hearst has fired for unsubstantiated and unclear reasons need our help to get by and support their families now that they are unemployed. Please consider helping them out here: gofund.me/77e05d0d1

If it seems to you like there are fewer journalists covering Connecticut, you’re right. This week, those ranks grew thinner: Hearst CT unjustly fired a highly experienced reporter who was respected by his peers, sources and readers.

When @PioneerPress contract negotiations start in a few minutes, local management/editors won’t be at the table. They live here, they’re on our side and want to hire more reporters at higher wages. Alden Global Capital, a hedge fund, has flown in corporate attorneys from California. That ain’t St. Paul!

Today was Day 1 of negotiations with the Pioneer Press/AdTaxi and its hedge-fund owner, Alden Global Capital. Local news is essential to our community and our democracy! PiPress workers deserve a union contract that delivers fair pay, safety, and respect.

(1/5): Two summers ago we wrote our proposal for our first contract — the one we’re still bargaining over as management continues to drag their feet through negotiations with us.

Exciting news from Albany! The NY #FAIRNews Act, which requires clear disclaimers when AI is used in any published news content, passed in both the Senate and Assembly. 👏Thanks to Sen. @PatriciaFahy46 & Assm. @Nily for championing this bill.

Shuttering E&E News goes directly against what @politico @POLITICOPro management told staff earlier this year, when our colleagues were asked to consider buyouts. A message from PEN Guild leadership 👇

Heard from a lot of loyal readers asking if we're OK this morning following news that @politico plans to kill the @EENewsUpdates brand. There's still a lot of questions. Here's what we've told management so far:

New: Politico is folding E&E, the energy trade publication it bought in 2020. The company says it is reorganizing its energy coverage under the Politico brand and launching a series of new state and global energy newsletters.

Bad-faith bargaining is bad for business. After we went on strike, a major advertiser halted ad buys in solidarity. We are asking others to do the same until McClatchy Media comes to the table with a fair offer.
