Making our return to Twitter for today’s lunchout by members of the Fort Worth NewsGuild!
We withheld our labor to advocate for successorship & increased wages as we bargain with McClatchy for a new contract.
We look forward to the company acknowledging the value of our labor.

Today, @mcclatchy employees were supposed to get paid.
But, bc of an apparent logistic issue, we didn’t. The company says it’ll be fixed by tomorrow, but for today the @FortWorthGuild is taking a lunch break together.
Our work has value, and we all deserve to be paid on time.

First up, Nicole Villalpando, a health reporter at the Austin-American Statesman. She’s witnessed younger staff leaving within a year or two because their salaries aren’t enough to live in Austin.
Her message to Gannett: “Invest in your journalists and it will pay off tenfold.”

The latest @Gannett earnings report shows the company has more than enough to go around. It’s time to share the wealth, pay reporters fairly, and get serious about rebuilding newsrooms.
It’s what local news readers across the country deserve.

Giuseppe Sabella, a reporter at the Palm Beach Post, spent an entire weekend delivering food for UberEats last month just to make ends meet. "I can't justify a long-term career at Gannett if something doesn't change, and fast."

Our highly skilled Pulitzer Prize finalist journalists @statesman are currently making less than what a gas station in Texas is paying its employees. It is time to share the wealth @gannett

Invest in local news! Pay these journalists, @Gannett!

Today, journalist across @Gannett have emailed our leaders asking for a raise. In Austin @statesman. many of our veteran journalists have not had a raise for six years or more. Some of our younger journalists qualify for low-income housing. This has to change.

Kudos to these journalists. For the first year+ of my time covering ~affordable housing~ I qualified for some of the income-restricted units I was writing about.
When I left I still couldn't afford the average 1-bedroom in the city. This work shouldn't bankrupt people.

Today, we’re joining journalists across @Gannett to email company leaders asking for raises.
Gannett says it values local journalism, but it doesn’t invest in it by paying the folks who do it. It’s time for a change.

This is unacceptable. Not only to layoff such a longstanding member of the newsroom, but to do so with hardly any notice is truly callous.
Charlotte Observer News Guild@observerguild
We are frustrated and disappointed to learn that @McClatchy has chosen to lay off one of our most veteran staffers — with less than two weeks’ notice.

McClatchy doesn’t value local news if it doesn’t value the people who produce it. We deserve better. So do our readers.
