South Bend is a proud city and deserves a quality local newspaper. Those of us left at the Tribune are dedicated & trying our best, but we need help.
Tell Gannett owners what you think of staffing reductions made under their watch: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…. It takes all of us.

🚨Gannett journalists are WALKING OUT🚨
On June 5, the day of Gannett's annual meeting, 100's of journalists from Texas to NY are launching a wave of walkouts to send shareholders a message: @Gannett needs new leadership, starting from the top.
It's time to end #GannettGreed.

@SBNewsGuild journalists are fighting for better pay and working conditions! That means more newsroom staff and wages that allow workers to stay in their jobs and become part of our community!
Fight with us! Tell @Gannett you want a better @SBTribune! actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

Sending love to our fellow @indynewsguild today. Sadly it's not just in South Bend where Gannett has failed to invest in local journalists

It’s Valentine’s Day — but we’re brokenhearted.
In the 2 years since our contract with @Gannett expired, we’ve lost more than 20 guild members.

How many more hearts will Gannett break before we get a fair contract? Today, we're standing with our friends at @indynewsguild to say we can’t afford to wait any longer. We need fair contracts now!

It’s Valentine’s Day — but we’re brokenhearted.
In the 3 years since we started our union, we’ve lost more than 14 guild members and @Gannett refuses to offer us fair wages or hire more local journalists!

Hey all! Another Notre Dame night game another thread about local news unions!
While ND is off to a good start in this one, Gannett is off to a horrible start in its bargaining with our news guild (@SBNewsGuild), offering a wage proposal that's unacceptable...(1/a few)

Our South Bend team is standing in solidarity with journalists across @Gannett this week as we fight for fair pay & fully staffed newsrooms.
The company recently offered us its first pay proposal. Inside: no significant raises & a $250 “signing bonus”.

Smaller newsrooms & low pay pay hurts our ability to cover local news, sports and events in the community.
Help us tell @gannett why local journalism matters by signing our petition (be sure to scroll all the way down to sign): actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

Hey all, before the Notre Dame game ramps up I just wanted to raise some awareness about an issue that affects a lot of us here in South Bend and that's the recently announced spending cuts at @Gannett.

This week, the South Bend Tribune’s corporate owners announced buyouts & a hiring freeze. With no numbers in our contract and our staff growing smaller, local news suffers.
