awful news. this is where my career started, learned a lot at this newspaper. sad day for the hard working staff that will lose their jobs and the community that will lose its only local news source. oregonlive.com/business/2026…

We’re still trying to negotiate our first contract, but @EverettHerald management isn’t playing ball. ⚾️⚾️ We handed out flyers at last night’s @EverettAquaSox game, asking folks to support our fight for a living wage and fair working conditions.

3,500 words on an important local election. simply would not be possible with a 2-3 story per day quota!

I am very proud of the folks who are continuing to push this forward, it is and has been a brutal union fight. I'll add a warning: Carpenter Media is a major threat to American journalism. If they come to your community, watch out.

we’ve gone too long being treated like we’re worthless, being offered minimum wage for our work. we deserve better and snohomish county deserves better. join our fight for fair wages and working conditions!
UPDATE: The Everett NewsGuild is calling on Herald subscribers to support their contract fight as Carpenter Media Group continues to offer low wages and tie meager raises to story quotas. (1/5) actionnetwork.org/petitions/…
