City Newspaper Guild Gripes
Check out the comments on this entry over at the Northwest Newspaper Guild’s blog for its contract negotiations with the Seattle Times.
Looks like union negotiators for the roughly 650 reporters, photographers, and ad sales reps at the Times have accepted a wage freeze proposed by the company—and some of the rank and file union members are pissed. (By the sound of the post, the union negotiators are pretty unhappy too.)
The union membership will be voting on Sept. 13 and 14 to decide whether to accept the new contract. In the run-up to the vote, what are the union commenters saying?
