Video unit of Philly.com
Dear Guild member,
We are pleased to announce the expansion of Guild jurisdiction over the video unit of Philly.com.
After a successful organizing drive, the Guild picked up four employees who shoot, edit, and produce original video content for Philly.com. Future hires who perform similar tasks will also be Guild members. The video unit is vital toward the continued implementation of new media initiatives at the Inquirer and Daily News.
We appreciate Philadelphia Media Network’s cooperation in bargaining an agreement on the new unit, which sought Guild recognition, without an election before the Labor Board.
Our new members are Marnie Hall, Andrew Ritchie, Conor Kelley and Nicholas Grieves. They are stationed on the 2nd floor of 400 N. Broad Street near the rear elevators. Please introduce yourself if you see them.
In unity,
Dan Gross, President,
Bill Ross, Executive Director,
and the Executive Board of the Newspaper Guild of Greater Philadelphia/CWA Local 38010
