We stand with our @PostGuild siblings. Democracy depends on journalism -- now more than ever.

Workers CAN regulate AI with strong contract language. Full stop. Unionized journalists just proved this at POLITICO. @penguild

Congratulations @gordoszone on 39 years with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Enjoy retirement!

FYI...

Ryanne was shot in the head for doing her job as a journalist. When gov targets the press, it’s not just an attack on reporters—it’s a violation of the First Amendment and the public’s right to know. We’re proud to join @ACLU_SoCal & @LAPressClub to demand accountability.

WE FIXED IT: Obviously our successful rally had an effect on @NYDailyNews management, who felt compelled to “write” an op-ed. Unfortunately it’s full of mischaracterizations and missing key facts. As journalists we couldn’t let that slide, so we got out our red pens…

Last week, a Circuit Court ordered @PittsburghPG to restore the health care it illegally took away years ago. It's a great sign we’re going to get everything this strike has fought for. Clearly, the Blocks need you to break this down for them. Will you? tinyurl.com/DearBCI

BREAKING: Today the 3rd Circuit Court enjoined the @PittsburghPG, ordering the company to — upon request — immediately restore the health care it illegally took away in 2020, and bargain with us. This is an enormous win and the most consequential day of our entire strike.

The United Media Guild, TNG-CWA Local 36047 seeks an Administrative Officer to be based in St. Louis, MO. Details can be found at: unionjobs.com/listing.php?id… #1u #UnionStrong @UMediaGuild @CWAUnion

Stunning image by @kodacohen in Bridgeton, the same community that got slammed by the Good Friday tornado in 2011.

BREAKING: The @NLRB has filed to enjoin the @PittsburghPG to stop its years of breaking federal labor law. This could’ve been avoided by the PG bargaining in good faith. We’ve struck for 2+ years to restore our contract & get decent health care. This injunction would grant that.

BREAKING: Our hedge fund owners @McClatchy are up to their old tricks at the bargaining table. Their latest move: holding healthcare hostage for union members at the @MiamiHerald, @elnuevoherald and @BradentonHerald.

For the first time in more than a year, the @PittsburghPG will sit with us for Guild bargaining tomorrow. They need to stop wasting money and YOUR time. Will you tell their owners & execs today? actionnetwork.org/letters/is-the…

Our nation’s democratic system functioned last night and we have a new President-elect.  All Americans are bound, whether we like the outcome or not, to accept the results of our elections. We now have a special responsibility, as citizens of the greatest nation on earth, to do everything we can to support and defend our Constitution, preserve the rule of law, and ensure that our institutions hold over these coming four years. Citizens across this country, our courts, members of the press and those serving in our federal, state and local governments must now be the guardrails of democracy.

The last hour of early voting in St. Louis County,, MO in a driving rainstorm. This kind of dedication is something to behold.

Nearly 750 of our coworkers in the @NYTimes newsroom have signed a pledge supporting us. They are urging AG Sulzberger and execs to bargain NOW…
