We've raised over $12,000 for our Pittsburgh Post-Gazette strikers so far!!🙌 But we still have a ways to go before we reach our $50,000 goal. Any amount matters, use this link to donate: cwa.org/ppgholiday

Our journalists can’t afford to live in the communities they cover, because Gannett won’t give raises or approve contracts that pay living wages. Invest in your journalists and invest in news, Gannett! @GannettUnion @nyguild

Like the rest of NJ, the Rutgers roots in our unit (and @GannettUnion) run deep. Many of us learned journalism from RU faculty, adjuncts and part-time lecturers like the ones with @ruaaup @ruaaup_ptl who are on strike right now. #RUonStrike

Okay, @northjersey. Though as a subscriber, I think today is also a great day to pay @melanieanzidei, @MegBurrow, @Colleenallreds and the rest of The Record staff more. | From the Editor: Now's a great time to subscribe to .NorthJersey.com northjersey.com/story/news/c…

It’s Valentine’s Day — but we’re brokenhearted. In the 2+ years since our contract with @Gannett expired, we’ve lost more than 20 guild members.

A union isn’t a service you subscribe to. A union is a decision to stand with your colleagues and fight to make your lives better.

THREAD: In July, @danny_logiudice asked for a well-deserved raise. He's not just a great local sports reporter, but his work is successful, according to Gannet's own metrics. Danny's been working for APP & MCJ since 2015. He makes $37,000 per year. #WeToldYouSo (1/8)

I’m an editor at Gannett. This week, I’m on mandatory furlough. That means anything I post here is from me and doesn’t represent my employer. To wit: Companies should pay their employees what they agreed to pay them.

that’s us, filing ULP charges against @Gannett 😎
.@gannett's team of 14 Midwest digital producers who serve @USATODAY properties like @indystar @courierjournal filed charges with @NLRB last week. They were in midst of unionizing when Gannett eliminated the team, per charge document obtained under FOIA.

Not only annual layoffs but we are taking mass layoffs in huge numbers and this year #Gannett has already done 3 rounds of mass layoffs of at least 600 valuable employees from news teams already cut to the bone.

This 35% of stories number #Gannett is throwing around saying producers have handled is absolutely false and made up and everyone who has worked for an actual Gannett newsroom or DOT knows it.
This is absurd. I worked for Gannett when these folks - who were already stretched thin - were HAPHAZARDLY ripped out of their newsrooms and expected to cover even more properties. It’s not only ridiculous to claim they only touch 35% of stories, it’s downright disrespectful.
