Rallying both news and non-news staff in the station, @sagaftra aims to help @WHQR develop professionally and sustainably, starting with pay.
The WHQR spokesperson said rent has risen nearly 60% since 2017 in Wilmington, while wages have not kept pace.

“I think there’s an assumption that if you work in nonprofit media, you generally have to accept less...And I don’t think you have to.”
Wilmington-based @WHQRunion, following @wemakeWFAE's lead, is the second NPR member station in NC to seek unionization

Very proud to be part of this union, and I'm grateful to our leadership at the station for agreeing to voluntarily recognize us and avoid an election. Onward and upward!

I feel so lucky to work here as my first full-time position out of college.
My co workers are some of the most amazing people I know.
Big hearts and big minds, that deserve fair compensation for their selfless work.
Journalism is important, and so are the people who do it.

Reporters deserve more! This job is stressful, requires very odd hours, includes bizarre contracts (especially in TV), and is very skill-based. We deserve pay and recognition commensurate with the hard and important work we do.

Unionizing newsrooms matters. I started at a paper in 2017 I was making $12.26 an hour. I have a political science degree and made 24k pre tax annually. Yes I know I picked this career, but it’s important. If you think news is getting worse ask who can afford that income.

@michael_praats Thank you, Michael! Solidarity with all reporters and producers!
