We’re thrilled to share that the VTDigger Guild has reached a deal with our management on an updated contract. The agreement we’ve built together will make VTDigger a better place to work — and only strengthen the journalism our members produce and that our readers rely on.

Some other highlights of the new Guild-management deal: more paid time off, a yearly stipend for professional development and a more formal process for reporters to voice their opinions when top newsroom leaders get hired.

As a Guild, we feel confident that this contract sets VTDigger up for a strong future. And, while you’re here, we hope you’ll consider doing what you can to help ensure that future, too. Donate to VTDigger’s ongoing Spring Member Drive here: vtdigger.donorsupport.co/pag…. Thank you!

We know that readers and small-donors also prefer human journalists, not unreliable and biased AI news. Tell VTDigger management to work with us on the ways AI is implemented in our newsroom. At stake is not only our own job security but the integrity of our local journalism
