Your coverage in Naperville has been compromised. A city of 150,000 deserves more than one full-time reporter.

Alden Global Capital & @TribPub make us all less safe.
Under Alden Global Capital, Tribune upholds glaring racial & gender pay inequities, makes illegal cuts to health care in a pandemic and cuts coverage.
Help to win the news our communities deserve.

Billed the company $37.80 for mileage, only to find out three of the 7 pens don’t work. I need to hit up an expo/festival this weekend where businesses are giving away free pens. @GuildSuburban

5 hours and 84 miles later….. arrived home with 7 pens, 7 notebooks, 2 batteries for my mouse and 3 post-it pads. @GuildSuburban

After more than a hour commute and a 45-minute walk in a search for pens, I am taking a break for lunch. Need sustenance for the trip home. @GuildSuburban

Spent 45 minutes searching for the supply cabinet with the help of security, who wanted to know where it was too. Not that I could get there because my badge doesn’t work here.

I need pens and notebooks and the company told me to come pick them up. On my way…. @GuildSuburban

In the middle of the pandemic, @TribPub broke the law to make our health insurance worse and our communities less safe. Cutting coverage for our most vulnerable members, 14% premium increases and other aggressions are extreme even for them. And the U.S. gov’t agrees!

That time when you realized that private equity was not just destroying local newspapers, but pretty much everything. @nyguild @PhillyNewsGuild @newsguild @dfmworkers Read the whole thread, and the whole series for the full picture of which my story is just a small part.

March 15 is equal pay day. The recent study shows that median pay for women is about $8,355 less than for male colleagues across the Tribune Publishing's unionized newsrooms. I am working to change that.

Pay for women is about $8,000 less than for male colleagues across the Tribune's unionized workplaces. My paycheck can attest to that. #InternationalWomensDay

On #IWD – and all days – we want you to know @TribPub pays women $8,355 less than men, pays Black workers, Asian workers and Hispanic or Latino workers, respectively, $7,740, $7,510, and $4,530 less than white workers, and thinks that’s OK.
We don’t.

Still feeling the love this Valentine's Week for our union siblings @TBContentGuild. We'd just ❤️ to see this company try and function without your work.

We really do depend on each other almost as much as the company (@TribPub) we're fighting tooth and nail at the bargaining table. Solidarity across the country.

For the first time many of us can remember, @TribPub managers are recognizing that we won't work for free. Why is this happening?
Because we are asserting control over our time like never before.
