Yesterday, 18 staffers, freelancers, and contract workers at VICE and Refinery29 were laid off. They are exceptional talents and would be a valuable addition to your publications. Follow them. Hire them. Here they are:

BIG WIN: We’ve reached a tentative agreement in our contract to eliminate NDAs for harassment & discrimination. Now, we’re calling on G9 as a whole to eradicate this harmful practice with 90% of union members across @NowThisUnion, Thrillist, and @thedodounion in support.

Today's the day! We'll be back at the table with management and a federal mediator for the first of two bargaining sessions this week. We're prepared to burn the midnight oil if that's what it takes to strike a fair deal.

We're nearing 90% of our fundraising goal to provide an additional month of healthcare coverage to our video colleagues, after G/O Media abruptly laid them off. Help us cross the finish line by donating, or boost with an RT! gofundme.com/f/gizmodo-media…

We're over halfway to our fundraising goal for our 11 colleagues who were abruptly fired by G/O Media. Any amount, even a little, helps! Please donate if you can, and RT even if you can't: gofundme.com/f/gizmodo-media…

It’s been 2 weeks since we announced our union. This week we responded with a formal petition letter addressed to @eldsjal @DawnOstroff @mootron. It was signed by 100% of our members. @Spotify we are asking once again for recognition without further delay or division.

Replying to @HuffPost
@HuffPost is disproportionately white. Among unionized/non-management editorial staff, only 6.8% are Black (U.S. is 13% Black) and only 1.7% are Latinx (U.S. is 18% Latinx). In management, there is only ONE Black person and ONE Latinx person. 25 out of 36 managers are white.
